Answer:

Food Habits

Generally, people in a region eat what is easily available around them. Bengal, for example, has many hot and humid coastal areas, so people mostly eat rice and fish, their staple diet.

Many examples in Bengali literature, sculptures, and paintings tell us that fishing has always been important to the people of Bengal. For example, terracotta plaques on the walls of temples and viharas (Buddhist monasteries) show scenes of fish being dressed and taken to the market in baskets.

And although the religion of Brahmanas doesn't allow them to eat fish, as per the Brihaddharma Purana (a 13th-century Sanskrit text) Brahmanas in Bengal were allowed to eat certain varieties of fish.
