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.

Jealous I'm on two meals a day (normal ones, not 30 fish fingers) 5ft 10 and losing 0.5-1lb a week

You must be my neighbour and have been spying through my window! How did you know about the goldfish. Oh and while you are here, can you stop parking on my driveway and stop using your washing machine at the ungodly hour of 8am? Thanks.

I think just looking at the box is filling enough. In the supermarket though; you’d never want to be seen dead actually buying a box (especially not the 20 box)

4 or 5

My partner will eat 12, with beans.

12 in a sandwich but he does weight training.

Me 2-3

Same as a fish fillet. Who's having a go at you?

😂😂😂

Excellent source of protein but has NOBODY counted the calories-per-caterpillar @dontcallmethatyoucunt ?

This is like the Mumsnet chicken that can last 5 days it's a wide eyed competition to say the least amount for an adult and be so terribly surprised that basically no one agrees with you......I'd say 4 (at least) and if you wanted a few more, probably a teenager, then I'd make them. They are tiny and shite, 2-3 is what a restraint feeds a toddler/ young child.

Week 1 just look at picture of box, Week 2 look at picture on box, Week 3 lick picture on box, Week 4 eat a crumb, Week 5 scream at a picture of yourself naked for 15 hours.

The best fish fingers are the Birds Eye chunky ones. One of those is a child portion and two is an adult portion.

sorry 🥴
would (and have) though. The idea that the “normal calorific intake for an adult woman is around 1,300 is nuts. Can only assume the poster I was replying to has Bering doing that for a long time and messed up their metabolism.

stick with it! Half a pound is half a pound. That’s another, what, 4 or 5 by Christmas?

Made me lol

@Mentalpiece my (mentioned upthread) child who doesn't like the smell of fish did used to eat fish fingers as a toddler.
She would hold one with both hands and delicately nibble on it like a squirrel.
Very Mumsnet indeed 🤣

I'd have 4 with chips and beans I think

Then your 9 year old must be fucking massive.

No one’s having a go haha.
My mum thinks I’m the fattest bitch in the world.
But as a previous poster has pointed out, she’s had her 3 fish fingers with a massive pile of chips and beans. I’ve had my 6 fish fingers with just a couple chips as I don’t really like chips that much and a spoon of beans. My mum loves making me feel bad about my body though!

Honestly as an adult I wouldn't eat fish fingers for a main meal, I consider them kid's food, same as chicken nuggets. If I did I think I'd have 4.

I'd have 2, I have a small appetite, however my skinny 11 year old would happily eat 4 with chips and peas.

I’d have 4 but with chips and some kind of veg or beans. I’m a healthy weight and exercise lots. Portion sizes of 2 fish fingers or equivalent would cause me to lose weight. I give 3 to my 8 and 10 yr olds but they would probably eat more too.

4- that way I get 3 portions out of a pack of 12

I’m sure most 9 year olds could eat 3 without teetering on morbid obesity

Oh and fish finger wise I would have 4 with lots of veg or in a sandwich (eat 3.5 and give the half to the cat)
Sausages I have 2-3

Sounds like having a go tbh. Not cool anyway.

Oh OP!
Tell your mum you will now only eat 5 fish fingers.
Because you will be shoving the 6th up her arse.

Still frozen, for easier insertion.
