Wales was in second place with one in five there devouring a daily doner, the survey by food tech company Foodhub found.

London was third with more than one in seven.

The UK has more than 20,000 kebab takeaways flogging the late-night favourite, typically doner meat in pitta with lettuce, onion, tomato and garlic mayo.

An average of £9million worth are bought every week.

Foodhub chief executive Ardian Mula said: “We know the UK loves kebabs but it’s remarkable to see just how much!”

Chicken tikka and chicken shawarma kebabs are also among the best-selling fillings.

The poll found 15 per cent of Brits eat one several times a week.
