I'm not entirely sure when it got to the point were fishfinger sandwiches were considered a delicious cuisine. Maybe I missed the memo on that one. However, according to my housemate it is tres bien. I believe that remains to be seen and since it's something I will never try... well it will never be seen. She's in a slightly more diabolical financial state than myself and was rather impressed by the fact £3.00 at Sainsburys buys five packets of fishfingers and a loaf of bread. Apparently this shopping trip will keep her going for the next few weeks. I raised a brow at this.
It wouldn't keep me going for an hour.
And I would rather eat gravel. Fishfingers are like eating boiled bones.
It got me to thinking about the weird things I have eaten as a student. Mash is a staple food. Seriously, its fluffy goodness that comes in powder form. Excellent. But my menu has ranged from rice with ketchup in to tinned curry on toast. Not so weird when you consider a friend of mine who tried to make a cooking sauce using milk. Not only gross but highly ineffective. It tastes rank. Don't try it.
It's nearly as bad as a girl I knew who dipped toast in hot chocolate. This wasn't a poverty thing but a taste preference. Either way, it still turns my stomach a little just thinking about it, but then I have put soup in a tortilla before. Not quite Mexican, and incredibly messy, but still, it did the trick.
