How many fish fingers?

[MrsMiddleMother]

Just dishing up dinner before I head out to work, just an easy fish fingers, chips and veg and suddenly thought 'how many fish fingers do I give an 11 year old? I wasn't sure whether 2 was enough or 3 too much, they do eat quite a lot.

How many would you give an 11 year old?

3 or 4. Two isn't enough.

3 or 4 they've shrunk over the years

My 7 & 10 Yr old have 3...any less is basically neglect

3 maybe 4

Definitely 3 or 4 for an 11 year old

Our DTS13 and DD15 were assigned the role of making fish finger sandwiches at the weekend. I left it to them to decide how many pieces of bread/how many fingers.

DP intervened when he heard they were dishing up 8 fingers each. (I thought it sounded fine )

Mine had 8 last night with baked beans 😋

4

Depends. Fish fingers are my comfort food, I've been known to eat a whole pack on my own. For a hungry 11 year old I'd serve 4, lighten up on the chips if you're worried about empty carbs.

Mmmmm fish fingers....

No chips though

🤣

My 12 year old doesn't like fish fingers (weirdo) but quantity wise hed eat at least 6.

4 or 5.

My 8 year old has 3, my 13 year old has 4, sometimes 5.

I'd give an 11 year old 4 - they're not very big.

Mc Donald's give 3 in a happy meal and children outgrow them at about age 7. So 4.

With chips and veg, 2.

My 12 year old has 5 with beans

3 or 4 probably.

4 normally here (8&10, although 8yo doesn't like chips so just has the veg)

DS16 had two fish finger sandwiches for lunch, with four in each. Sounds fine to me. (They are definitely smaller then they used to be. Four fit in a sandwich perfectly now, but I'm sure I used to put only three in).

My 2.5yo has two so I'd say 3 or 4 depending how hungry.

My 8 year old has 4, sometimes 5 and 4 year old has 3 or 4. Surely an 11 year old needs even more?

My petite 2 year old eats 2!
