Yes I’m posting in Aibu because this is causing ww3 in my house currently.

yabu: 4 is plenty.
yanbu: 4 is a child portion.

Depends what with, I'd assume 3-4

FuckoffeeBeforeCoffee · 17/11/2022 18:15

Three?

BamBamBilla · 17/11/2022 18:16

4

PickAChew · 17/11/2022 18:16

3 for a child, 5 for an adult. 4 in a sarnie for lunch. Couldn't vote.

Chasingsquirrels · 17/11/2022 18:16

I'd have 3, with chips & peas.

Xmasbaby11 · 17/11/2022 18:16

6 for adult

3-4 for kids

ToastAndJames · 17/11/2022 18:16

3-4

gobbynorthernbird · 17/11/2022 18:16

Depends on the size of the slices of bread.

Boooooot · 17/11/2022 18:17

With chips and beans.

Four is a small adult portion, I would prefer six but would restrain myself.

AffIt · 17/11/2022 18:18

At least four, possibly six.

(I bloody love fish fingers)

TidyDancer · 17/11/2022 18:18

3 or 4 I would say is an adult portion.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 17/11/2022 18:18

3-4 but my dp would say 6.

shreddies · 17/11/2022 18:18

4

Comedycook · 17/11/2022 18:18

4/5 for an adult
2/3 for a child

CharlotteUnaNatalieThompson · 17/11/2022 18:18

6-8 in our house, teenagers and adults. With peas or baked beans (and sometimes mash).

Or 4 in a sandwich (with cucumber and brown sauce)

We're all a healthy weight but 3 or 4 wouldn't touch the sides!

Gymrabbit · 17/11/2022 18:18

With chips and beans I’d have 3 and I’m both overweight and a bit piggy.

anymore is massively greedy.

Woolandwonder · 17/11/2022 18:19

I only have 2 and I'm not a 'big salad' mumsnet poster just only ever want 2. I reckon three would be average for an adult.

“Massively greedy” is OTT and actually quite a horrible thing to say.

I do 3 for my 3 year old (presuming big standard fish fingers and not the fancy giant ones). So I'd say 6 for an adult.

TabithaTittlemouse · 17/11/2022 18:19

Bloody hell, I would have said two was enough!

ofwarren · 17/11/2022 18:19

4 in this house

WowIlikereallyhateyou · 17/11/2022 18:19

Usually 5/6

Hopemax · 17/11/2022 18:20

I'd have 4, possibly Dh might have 5 and then 2/3 for kids depending on ages.

Thesearmsofmine · 17/11/2022 18:20

3 or 4 if I’m very hungry. DH would have 5 or 6 though.
