Really not a fan of the quorn produce. I think the meat free own-branded stuff from Asda and Sainsburys is far nicer than Quorn stuff. For me it has a really odd after taste.

I think they're all right. They make a decent fish finger sandwich.

I don't mind them. Prefer them fried than grilled though as otherwise they're a bit dry

I will never understand products like this.
If you like the taste of fish, eat fish!! If you have ethical objections, eat proper veggie food not fake flesh!!! |

![]() I might keep a look out for them since there seem to be relatively few fish alternatives whereas there are plenty of vegetarian alternatives to meat, sausages, bacon, chicken, etc. |

Isn't Quorns Fish Fingers kind of misleading considering that its called fish fingers but it doesn't contain any fish. Why not call it Quorn flake fingers?

For people who may have ethical objections to industrial meat production it's quite simple: it doesn't contain meat. Not so hard to understand, is it? I like fishfinger sandwiches but I don't eat meat. Someone makes fish-less fingers that taste sort of like fishfingers but don't contain any dead fish. Problem solved! Quote:

I understand that this is how these appalling non-foods are marketed, but if you have a strong belief in vegetarianism they are a contradiction in terms. These products (like fake bacon, chicken, etc) still take flesh-eating to be the norm. A committed vegetarian should cook & eat genuinely veggie food, which (and I say this as a carnivore) can be absolutely delicious and 1000 times more satisfying and nutritious than manufactured crap like quorn.

They're actually called 'Fish-less Fingers' so, no, not misleading at all. |

I don't understand these meat substitute things because if you want to eat something that tastes like a fish then eat a fish and if your a vegetarian and you want to eat something that's like a fish but you don't want to eat a dead fish then eat a carrot.
If an non-meat alternative could be made that was indistinguishable from real fish the over-fishing and fish-stock issue we currently have would be solved. That's not a bad thing, is it? As a vegetarian I don't feel conflicted about eating fish-less fish(ish)-tasting fingers since THEY DON'T CONTAIN ANY FISH. |

No they won't because it is not fish, so it won't be a fish finger sandwich.

If they are vegetarians shouldn't they just eat vegetables, fruits and nuts? |
