Best Answer

Most immigrants ate fish, not chicken or beef. This is because the immigrants lived in New York. In New York there aren't lots of animals such as cow and chicken. Therefore, it was hard to get beef and chicken. What was left for immigrants to eat was fish, that were from lakes and rivers nearby. That is why immigrants mostly ate fish, and not chicken or beef.
