To eat 10 fish fingers for my lunch?

[Member869894]

With a tomato?? My friend is here and horrified

The tomato bothers me.

Wow great effort
4 fish fingers and lots of tomatoes for me

Naff white bread x2 slices or a tortilla wrap
4 fish fingers
Ketchup
Tartare sauce
Gherkin
Magnificence! I have checked in my freezer to see if there's fish fingers for tomorrow's lunch 😁

Waitrose essentials fish fingers are 53 calories each so 530 calories for lunch isn’t that remarkable, a Waitrose ham and cheese ploughman’s sandwich is 560 calories and no one would bat an eye at that.

Its really upset me this evening to be honest.

I could have this along with some waffles or hash browns 😂😂

I'm still struggling to work out if that poster was being serious or is exaggerating teeny tiny portions for comic effect.

But this must be the first MN thread with many people telling the OP she should swap some of her protein items for evil carby bread.

Since I was a little girl a portion of fish fingers has always, always been 4. About six months ago I read the packet. A portion is 3. I was completely amazed. So, well done OP for doing your thing. I applaud your commitment.

Agree! I also like three in a sandwich longways from top to bottom of the slice

I like to squeeze a fifth one in. Mainly as no one eats them but me and I don’t like leaving two in a box.

I can only eat fishfingers in packet quantities. So I generally buy packets of eight because then I have to stop.

I could happily eat that with curry sauce, no tomato

Horrified? Really! 🙄

Slimey, processed orange rectangles of unnamed fish? Ten of them? Why would you want that?? 🤣

Too bready. Far rather 10 fish fingers.

Also chubky haddock fish fingers are lovely. Not slimy at all. How are you cooking yours?

Aldi chunky! My fingers are too chunky, clearly 🤣

They taste nice.
(if they are slimy you aren't cooking them enough)

This made me laugh far more than it should!

No comment other than thanks for posting as the responses are brilliant.

Your life, your lunch, your choice! Enjoy I saw OP

YANBU. Done it myself many times.
The size they are nowadays, it's not an excessive amount.

Gaah I tried to post a picture of Barry the fish with fingers, but couldn't!

Me too. But I'd probably just have two with tomato sauce on in white bread and butter if I was on my own for lunch.
10n s a whole pack and a bit indulgent!

I’d eat 2 or 3 of the big “ luxury “ fish fingers in a tortilla wrap with a bit of salad and either a home made mango 🥭 salsa ( easy and delicious) or those Mexican dips you get ( pack of 4 different ones including guacamole 🥑)
In fact sometimes that’s our dinner here 😋

I would have trouble forcing down just one! Horrible things! Mashed up fish scraps covered in fluorescent orange crumbs of dubious composition. I try to avoid UPF as much as possible.

Why not have an unadulterated fish fillet instead?
