What’s an adult size portion of fish fingers??

[Boooooot]

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.

4 birds eye cod fish fingers are 260 calories. It says on the front of the box. I eat 5. Perfectly reasonable for a non-dock-worker.

The whole packet.

Well sainsburys fish fingers are 53 calories each and I had 6 which is a grand total of 300 odd calories.

I eat four Sainsburys fresh fishfingers but could easily eat all 6 of them . I usually have large tin of beans ( Heinz) .
Its my favourite fast food after a busy shift as a nurse.

Captain Birdseye ( or similar size) - I would have 4 fish fingers per adult plus chips & beans or peas 😋

The whole packet for me if it's an 8 or 10 pack.

2-3.

I'd have 2-3 depending on how big they are & how many are in the pack. DD10 would easily eat 4, DH would consider it a mere snack if there were less than 6, ideally he'd get at least 8. He's 6'4" typical rugby player build though, & is on his feet all day at work.

Wish I'd read this earlier. You could have had photographic evidence that adults can and do just have 2 fish fingers for an evening meal.

With home made potato wedges and some salad with all the trimmings. Followed by fresh fruit.

Like a PP, the fish is just the protein element of the meal.

We usually have 3 to share. So 1.5 each. We have them with a few beans and a chip, or occasionally 2 chips if we're really hungry. I can't imagine why anyone would want to eat more than that. Massively greedy. No wonder there is such an obesity problem at the moment.

If we have any leftovers, our cats share what is left.

Our sainsburies had no fish fingers last time I went ... traumatic

A few beans? You were lucky. In my day, we had gravel.

Got into a full rage and started reading this comment to DH before I realised the sarcasm 😂

and some salad with all the trimmings
Is this akin to the famed Mumsnet Massive Salad, or a new departure?

WHAT are the trimmings @CaptaNoctem ?!

Ah well, in that case you are all right. These are the ones I buy

4 in a sandwich.

2-4 for a child, 4-6 for an adult. More than that for people who do a lot of exercise/physical work

I hope you had something with it! I hear it is nice with salad cream, just a tiny bit though, wouldn't want to massively overeat.

My children (9, 7 and 3) would have 2. I don’t eat them, but if I did then I’d say 4.

At least 4 DH would have 6.

Except it really isn't.

4 fish fingers, 3 baked beans, 2 lettuce leafs and a partridge in a pear tree.

This thread is really making me want a fish finger sandwich! Off to the supermarket in the morning so I can have one for lunch.
