I have noticed that as far as question tags go, "isn't there?" is rarely used in conversations. Is it a common practice for native speakers to use "is there?" even for positive statements?
For example:
There's enough food for all of us, is there?
This is wrong based on the rule, but is this more likely to be used in conversational English than the one with "isn't there"?
