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.

I love this thread. I have 4 in a sandwich, or 5 on the plate but always a bit embarrassed that its quite a lot

I see other people eat more or less the same and I feel reassured

Two is crazy

FlounderingFruitcake and they also have fruit and a yogurt. No wonder there is an obesity crisis in Scotland! 3 fish fingers?!!!

5

We use a pack of 10 per meal and that's two adults (3 each), one child (3) and then the cook gets the last FF ... Usually with either chips and beans or mash and peas.

Child usually leaves somewhere between half to one whole FF.

"Massively greedy"?? Behave yourself! 😂

I have 4. A young child’s portion is two and an older child’s is 3.

Well I must be massively greedy because I can eat 8 and I’m not overweight with 2 waffles and beans

With chips and beans three is enough. That would be plenty for children and most adults in my experience, the people who would need more are larger adults or teenage boys.

5/6 seems really excessive.

I don't know why it has never occurred to me to have more than 3. I'd have 3, the dc would have 2 or 3. People eat 6 or 8???

I am laughing aloud at the absolute misery of an adult coming home after a days work and being given 2 fish finder for their evening meal 😂 118 calories. Come in guys you're worth more than that.

Fishfingers are tiny now. So about 5 or 6

I don't mean to run a motorbike through this thread, but the other night I ate 2 entire gastro pieces of lemon and pepper fish with fries and peas. Did have myself a little food coma afterwards. But those saying 2 fish fingers is enough!? A dinner like that would make me weep.

If it's a pack of 10, then 5 each, and half a pack for an emergency dinner later. If it's a pack of 12, 4 each, and extra peas to make up for one less finger.

4 or 5, depending on what else we are having.

My 10yo dd has 3

5/6 seems really excessive

I dunno - I'd prefer the kids had 5 fish fingers and less chips, rather than more chips and less fish fingers - I think it depends on what else is on the plate whether 5 is too many or the right amount.

I reckon I could see off 5 if left to my own devices but there's 10 in a pack so one dinner we have 3 for each adult and 2 for DS which leaves another 2 for DS on a different night.

2 would be insulting

Get fish filets instead... one per person.

Some fish fingers are tiny.

Really depends on the finger size though! Posh fingers or kids?!

Nothing less than 6.

8 - 4 in a sandwich and 4 on the side

You can’t believe people would genuinely eat more than 118 calories? Presumably that’s a main course for you and you can’t eat more than a sliver of ice for lunch?

4 if in a sandwich but 5 or 6 if with something else. I often have them with a salad so definitely wouldn’t be full on 2 or 3.

Depends. I could easily eat 4 or 5. A male manual worker would need around 8.
