MOST of us will be drooling over this list of our favourite foods – though some may well be choking on their breakfast cereal when they see the rotten ratings for their go-to grub.

Yorkshire pudding, Sunday roast, fish ’n’ chips and Victoria sponge came out on top with more than 80 per cent calling them the best. The Worst Tier was enjoyed by fewer than half of those surveyed.
