Chip shop choice

[Niach]

Unavoidable trip to the chippy coming up.

Kids portion of chips or a portion of scampi? Which would be the better choice?

I think it’s much of a muchness really. Get what you want, in a reasonable portion, and eat in moderation for the meals around it.

Better to get a small piece of fish or something high in protein, and rather than a portion of chips to yourself just have a couple from someone else’s portion (if they let you!)

Either ask them to steam you a piece of fish (we would do this in our chippy) or ask for thick batter well done and then you can basically crack the batter and pull it off like a shell, leaving you with a lovely poached fish!

Scampi is mostly breading so probably not the healthiest choice and won't fill you up.

Honestly I'd just get a single fish, and a handful of someone else's chips and then move on with life! Life's too short to worry about every meal.
