The above statement is true. Fish is the staple diet in Bengal.
The local availability of things determines the normal food habits of individuals. Bengal is a riverine plain that produces a lot of rice and fish. Hence these two items are a component of the diet of even the poor Bengalis. Fishing has always been a vital occupation of the people of the region. Even Bengali literature has several references to fish diets and dishes. Various aspects of architecture, like terracotta plaques on temple walls and viharas (Buddhist monasteries) depict scenes of fish being dressed and brought to the market in baskets.
