Feel really quite sick now

[sherrardk]

Just doing my on-line shopping and saw some fish-shaped fish things that I thought the little ones might like. Had a look at the ingredients and the list started - shredded fish (10.8%), water, molluscs, poultry skins ....! Yeuch!

[sara3]

you wouldn't get them through my shredder.. it jams if you put in two pieces of paper together ;o)

[pastafreak]

*poultry skins!!...........and molluscs..? Like which ones?

Sounds pretty grim Sherrard. The turkey twizzler episode a few years back put me off anything like that.

Try giving your little ones real fish.....if you make a big thing of eating it yourself they will probaby want to copy, especially if you make it sound like a special treat!!

[sherrardk]

They usually do have real fish, just looked at these as something different for them to have.

Can you provide a link sherrardk. We can all avoid them like the plague then!!

[squarebear]

You should also check things like hotdogs for "mechanically recovered meat". You don't want to know what that is!

[sherrardk]

Here you go - http://groceries.asda...=v1&_requestid=249335

It was the box that made me check the ingredients!

[squarebear]

Nothing there. What was the product called?

[sherrardk]

Fish and Dolphins made by Super Fish SA at Asda - but not all Asda's supply them (good job too).

[MTbowels]

Sorry to be picky sherrardk, but the link is to a page showing 110 fish lines at Asda. What was the name of the product?

[MTbowels]

oops sorry. cross posted

[sherrardk]

Sorry everyone, see post above ^, it might be that they don't do them where you live, we get 111 lines of frozen fish (lucky us then).

Kids don't need special food; just start as you mean to go on and they won't know any different. This fad of 'childrens' food only started in the last 25 years or so, I blame Capt'n Birdseye!
Just cook the meal, serve it up, if they're hungry then they'll eat it; if not, they'll leave it. Simples!!

[sherrardk]

Hi Madmaggot - they do get what everyone else gets, was just looking at the product to see if they might like it as a change, but they were a bit too much of a change!

[madmaggot]

Too true sherrardk, don't waste your cash. ;-)

[supersuezy24]

Uggghh nasty!!
Where they dear?

[sherrardk]

£1.33 for 230g, don't know if that is dear or not. Made me feel queasy all day.
