"the most common idioms" used are going to depend on a lot more than simply language. Idioms come and go in different subcultures, dialects, and time-periods at a nearly unpredictable rate. Certain phrases will last for ages while others only last for a year or so. Here are, however, some useful idioms which will add a little flavor to your speech :)

Spill the beans is slang for tell us your secrets or tell us the answer. It has nothing to do with food.
It is strictly slang.

The other important point to note is that it isn't slang - it's an informal idiom.

If you mean 'Is it used in England also?' , then yes, it is. American English and British English are slightly different, but we all speak English!
