Low importance C-Class article about a single fish product that is not a major contribution to American, Canadian or British cuisine. --Jeremy ( Blah blah...) 00:07, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think you underestimate the importance of fish fingers, sir. 193.164.143.242 (talk) 13:45, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, Fish Fingers contribute massively to British cuisine. Mat (talk) 14:25, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

British or American?

This article should really be called 'Fish finger' as opposed to 'Fishstick' if it was invented in the United Kingdom. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gokfan (talk • contribs) 14:28, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

isn't Birdseye american? its progenitor certainly was —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.122.63.142 (talk) 18:42, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the current version of the Clarence Birdseye article implies that this food was invented in the United States.

However, the current version of the Paul Eisler article implies that this food was invented in Britain.

Which is right? --68.0.124.33 (talk) 01:50, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure about the foodstuff itself, but I believe the trade name FishFinger (sic) was the name given in the US, I am quoting from memory I think from Bill Bryson Made in America (book), unfortunately all my books are in store. IIRC, it was named by a female secretary in the marketing department after they had run out of ideas. As I say this is all from memory but might give somebody else something to go on.

Sure, thanks. Try to remember to sign your posts in the future, though. :) Merpin (talk) 16:51, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Syrup?

Do people really eat fishticks with syrup? It's quite probably my cultural bias speaking, but that just sounds...bizarre. Merpin (talk) 16:51, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
