How many nuggets?

75 replies

Had an interesting (for a Monday 😂) chat at work today for what everyone classed as a 'normal' amount of chicken nuggets/fish fingers/rashers of bacon for a meal. For yourself, not your kids. I'm an 8 nugget, 5 fish fingers in a sandwich (well, 4 in a sandwich and one on the side to mop up any leftover tartare sauce) and 2 rashers of bacon in a sandwich. However it seems the norm in my is 4 bacon rashers a sandwich. Blew my mind, bacon:bread ratio is completely off. How many do you have?

3 bacon
4 fish fingers
Can't remember the last time I ate chicken nuggets, not sure I've ever cooked them in my life, maybe 6?

MotherOfTheNoise · 18/03/2019 19:18

4 bacon, this is non negotiable
6 nuggets
5 fish fingers (we make our own bread though so our loaves are very tall)

8 birdseye chicken dippers, 20 McDonalds ones
5 fish fingers
I use streaky bacon and use 3 and a half slices, there's 7 slices in a pack, so half the pack

arseabouttit · 18/03/2019 19:28

Bacon is the only part of this I can relate to so
Bacon 3 or 4 if feeling particularly hung over. Grin

CakeNinja · 18/03/2019 19:35

I haven’t eaten fish fingers or chicken nuggets since I was a child!
Bacon - 2 thick back bacon and 2 crispy streaky/pancetta. Mixing up the types is a game changer (and potentially a heart attack on a plate). Or just 2 thick smoked back bacon if we haven’t got anything else.

EssentialHummus · 18/03/2019 19:37

You can never have enough bacon.

This! If it wasn't as bad for you as it is I'd happily eat an entire packet of streaky bacon every other day.

And I'll just about get through 20 nuggets at McDonald's if they're served with Sweet Curry sauce.

I can give or take fish fingers though. All about moderation here.

Pinkyyy · 18/03/2019 19:38

I'm sorry but anyone who only has 2 slices of bacon on a sandwich doesn't know how to live. I have a minimum of 4. I've been known to indulge in 5 and have even indulged in 6

Pinkyyy · 18/03/2019 19:39

Not sure why I said indulge twice

hannah9176 · 18/03/2019 19:40

I feel like I've been living a bacon sheltered life! I'm going to make a 4 rasher bacon sandwich now. Slightly digressing and majority of people will disagree, but perfect sauce for a bacon sarnie....mayo 😍

@pinkyyy because you're sandwich is clearly super indulgent 😂😍

5 veggie fish fingers in a sandwich ( they are smaller than real fish fingers)
3 southern fried quorn dippers things
4 slices of fake bacon

hannah9176 · 18/03/2019 19:41

*your 😳

OP posts:
Pinkyyy · 18/03/2019 19:45

Exactly OP 😂 very indulgent indeed 😍

Ellieboolou27 · 18/03/2019 19:46

4 bacon ideally but usually 3 - best sauce for sarnie is ketchup and English mustard - life changing

Fish fingers 4 for a sandwich 6 in a meal
6-8 nuggets If I still ate them

LikeACowsOpinion · 18/03/2019 19:50

0 Fish Fingers (fish makes me heave.)
4 Rashers

And Chicken Nuggets? It depends. 6 if I cook them at home. Anywhere between 6 & 20 at McDonalds.
(Usually 20 to dip in a large chocolate milkshake - judge away Grin)

BloominSloe · 18/03/2019 19:51

3 bacon rashers in a sarnie. With buttered bread and brown sauce
4 or 5 fish fingers. With uttered bread and red sauce.
As many nuggets as I can for in my fat face in one sitting! Or 6 probably as that's the norm and I don't want to look like an actual pig.

LikeACowsOpinion · 18/03/2019 19:52

@hannah9176 MAYO?! On BACON?

Put yourself on the naughty step please AngryEnvy

Roominmyhouse · 18/03/2019 19:54

There is no excuse for being tight with bacon. You need at least 3-4 rangers for a decent sandwich, but it has to be crispy for me. Can’t stand wobbly bacon.

4-6 nuggets/fish fingers depending how hungry I am.

hannah9176 · 18/03/2019 19:54

@LikeACowsOpinion I'll meet you there with your chocolate nuggs 😂

hannah9176 · 18/03/2019 19:56

I've only just come round to crispy bacon in the last few months, always used to have it JUST cooked but had to cut the fat all off cause it was like jelly still and got stuck in my teeth 😂. Crispy bacon fat is a game changer.

SneakyGremlins · 18/03/2019 19:59

5 fish fingers, four for the sandwich and one for any sauce that dripped out.

12 nuggets.

0 bacon - don't like it!

Imacliche · 18/03/2019 20:02

5 bacon
Grown adults shouldn't eat "chicken" nuggets
4 fish fingers..with mushy peas on top in a sandwich.
Or a fishcake if its a bun.

KaleidoscopeEyes · 18/03/2019 20:03

@InMyBloodstainedSundaysBest Grin Grin Agreed. I can EASILY eat a whole pack of smoked streaky in one sitting, and do so regularly.

Fish fingers are vile.
Don't really care about nuggets either, but if someone bought me McDonalds ones, I would probably eat about 10, as I'm a greedy fat fucker.
