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.

Fish fingers and potato waffles 😍

They are unbelievably small when you weigh them out. Dieting over the years and weighing things out I go without the chips because the miserably paltry little portion thats 100g for some chips is horrible.

And the cereal, thats another thing I dont really eat, it just doesnt fill me up but 30g is almost invisible in the bowl!

Just check the packaging, think it's 4 fish fingers for a portion size. I'd eat 3 personally.

I measured 25g of granola once and nearly fainted. It was about a tea spoons worth. I’d been having huge bowls every morning. I must have been eating about 4 million calories every morning for breakfast!!

It is purely so they can claim it's "only xx cal ler portion!".
I ignored portions when cal counting and just went eith reasonable amount of stuff which fit into overall count

Food of the Gods

I remember watching the hairy bikers when they were doing their diet many years go, they set out what their normal usual food was and the dark haired one did his breakfast, a nice healthy bowl of granola with fruit on top and yoghurt (not low fat), it came to over 1000 calories!!!

Lol 40g of porridge isn’t much of anything either. I usually need to eat at least 100g with 100-200ml semi skimmed to feel satisfied. Works out to approx 350-400 cals which I think is about right for a meal that keeps you full.

@RunLolaRun102 I was at a BBQ once and the host cooked potato waffles on there. They were awesome.

I don’t eat huge portions and I don’t eat fish fingers often but when I do, I have 5 between two slices of white bread with butter. I do find it too much coating so if I was having this kind of fish for a meal, as an adult I would want a fish portion not fingers.

Generic ‘fish’ fingers are a lot smaller than defined type of fish fingers e.g. cod so can seem really small.

They are so good on a bbq. Home made is even better as it gets a lovely smoky flavour in the waffle iron.

No more than 4 for me.

Ds usually asks for 3.

Oh no I dont go by portions but if Ive got enough left for 100g of chips, Id rather have something else with my dinner so that I dont have to look at such a sad sight.

Always amazed at how much some people eat. Breaded fish and more potato?! Greedy 🤣

Four for a woman - possibly six for a man
5 as an average

Hubby says he has 6 in his portion

Brilliant! I looked at a bag of chips to infer after reading this thread and steak cut oven chips were nearly 200 cal for 100g. You don't get a lot of chip for your cals! That and the 2 fish finger gang would be on just over 300'calories for their evening meal.

The number of utterly disgusting greedy posters who only eat 2 or 3 fish fingers but then add on they eat more carbs (shock horror!). Bet it’s not healthy mash or chips, probably creamy and cheesy and greasy. Utterly revolting.
anyway, I would never be as gross and greedy as to eat food. I exist on water and air and superiority. 🙂

I like to find a goldfish that has a literal finger as that, served with a massive slice of radish, would be more than enough. Anymore and I would be blue lighted to hospital for an enema.

4

Good god! I’d have more than 2. My husband would have 6, I’d have 4

Dh doesn't like them
I would have 5 or 6
Teen dd would have 5
Ds10 would have 4
Ds 8 would have 3

🤣🤣🤣🤣 love this but can't decide.

Child 2-3
Adult 3-4

OP what a great post. I had 8 fish fingers earlier and was also wondering what a normal adult portion would be. I refuse to believe anything less than 6 is acceptable. I could honestly eat a full packet in one go. I actually took a photo of my dinner tonight because it was particularly amazing, I’ll drop it below. It was one of my greatest meals and I’ll probably have it again tomorrow
