Happy Birthday!

Today is the 50th anniversary of the fish finger!

It was on this momentous day in 1955 that the very first fish fingers went on saleā€¦


Exciting huh!??

Hey Haruna!
Yeah, I think that fish fingers are called fish sticks everywhere else in the world!

Also, if you send your address to the contact email on my blog profile page then I can send you your prize for being the 200th visitor to aliental! :D

But a fish finger is so much more than a fish stick! It's also covered in breadcrumbs (or sometimes batter). That's the distinction I think!

Ah! Not being very familiar with the phenomenon known as a 'fish stick' I didn't know that they were sans breadcrumbs/batter...

Very true what they say about learning something new every day...

I also didn't know until yesterday that when the huge blocks of fish are delivered to the factory, they are submitted to x rays to locate any hidden bones that remain...
