Advantages: Good quality fish, no bones, no grey bits Disadvantages: A little too dry, strongly flavoured, expensive
I eat a lot more fish than I do meat, and am ever on the lookout for new and tasty products that I can feast on. Salmon isn't my favourite fish by any means, as I find the flavour of it a little too pungent, but as a new-ish product, Birds Eye Salmon Fish Fingers caught my eye in Sainsbury's deep freeze the other day - naturally a pack sort of jumped into my trolley!
The pack is of very similar design to Birds Eye Cod Fish Fingers, except that the predominant colour is a salmon pink. The back of the box shows nutritional information, ingredients, dietary/allergy advice, storage/cooking instructions (oven bake or grill) and basic general dietary guidelines.
I decided to oven bake a few, and have with jacket potato, peas and tomatoes. Inside the box, each fish finger is uniformly shaped, the same size as the cod variety ...
Advantages: Very delicious, great appearance, easy to prepare Disadvantages: very processed and refined, a little expensive
I'm not and never will be one of those people that purchase a lot of ready made and boxed foods. Although it seems the easier option when your too busy to cook a proper, healthy dinner, i always choose to ignore, easy microwavable meals.
I suppose the shock horror stories and television documentaries that show these packet foods and what disgusting extra's they add doesn't exactly help or persuade me to purchase.
But although I've never been a consumer of birds eye products, as i think their foods always look very processed and refined, the box of salmon fish fingers really caught my eye. I tried to resist the urge to shove it in to my shopping trolley, but the mouth watering picture on the front really didn't help matters. so eventually, i decided i would give it a try and see how it tasted.
The price
Shopping in my favorite ...
Ah, fish fingers, where would we be without them? Down at the local chippy probably. Fish fingers are great though, aren't they? Generations of kids have grown up wolfing down these delicacies, gorging on low fat protein and omega 3 - eating healthy(ish) food without even realising it. and the great thing is they're totally sustainable - I mean, when did you last see a fish using fingers?
But now Birds Eye Fish Fingers have grown up with the arrival of pink salmon fish fingers. Salmon is brilliant. Tasty, healthy and a nice colour. I love it. So without a second thought or a backward glance these babes were quickly dumped in the shopping trolley, transported to the kitchen, fried (cos they're better that way) and sandwiched between two slices of wholemeal.
In case you're from Mars (Venus for girls) or even Neptune (see what I ...

Album Notes
Full title: Birds, Beasts, Bugs & Fishes (Little & Big). Solo performer: Pete Seeger. Originally released as 2 LPs. Not so much a children's folk album as it is a folk album with songs suitable for children, BIRDS, BEASTS, BUGS & FISHES--a 28-song compilation originally released in 1955 on two LPs--collects American and European folk songs about the animal kingdom. There're fanciful anthropomorphic narratives like the endlessly bizarre "Frog Went a-Courtin'," songs about the majesty of animals both wild and domesticated such as "I Had a Rooster" and "The Fox," and homespun narratives and dances that use animals as both metaphor and subject. One particular highlight is Seeger's peculiarly joyful version of "I Wish I Was a Mole in the Ground." Though not as celebrated as Bascom Lamar Lunsford's rendition, Seeger's take on the traditional tune is as mysteriously moving. By turns humorous and heartbreaking, BIRDS, BEASTS, BUGS & FISHES is a strong collection of folk classics.
