    It depends on the type of fish and chips. If you're eating at a restaurant, use the knife and fork they give you. If you're eating at a fast food place, you use what they give you (hands or maybe a tiny fork). Done.

  • @Smeeeeeghead
    @Smeeeeeghead Před 7 lety +60

    As a Brit, who has had many many fish and chip meals, have never seen someone eat a big bit of battered cod with their hands, itd just fall apart. but fried battered fish American style has nug-like consistancy could be eaten with fingers like nugs.

    • @fsen1999
      @fsen1999 Před 4 lety +1

      wtf kind of street food uses utensils?

  • @foxboy64
    @foxboy64 Před 6 lety +1

    the biggest differences in the argument here is that they have two differing ideas of what "fish and chips" are. the nl and malf definition is a large, whole fillet fried in a greasy, heavily oiled batter. the rob and malf version is also typically a batter but it isnt a light batter, its not nearly as greasy or oily, and the fish peices themselves are significantly smaller. they're more like fish strips than fish fillets. they are big but they arent wide, just long, and they hold together much better. picking it up by the middle with just two or three fingers is perfectly possible with the american style fish and chips. with no more mess than picking up the "chips" with the same hand would give you.

  • @henrath

    I think part of the split is because of the different types of fried fish. There's the small crispy battered ones and the large fluffy battered ones.

    A British fish and chip takeaway, a place we call a Chippy, ALWAYS has little wooden forks that you can cut and eat everything with on the go or at the beach. But if you're going home with it it just makes sense to eat it all with knife and fork like civilised people.

    @LucasJWilikers Před 7 lety +3

    Just to add a perspective from the Southern United States, there was a town near where I grew up in in Georgia and they had a law on the books that made it technically illegal to eat fried chicken with a fork
    It's one of those things that's never enforced but I guess it's frowned upon technically by law

    • @LucasJWilikers
      @LucasJWilikers Před 7 lety +1

      Gainesville GA, Poultry Capitol of the world
      www.gainesvilletimes.com/m/archives/21373/
      Most recently a visitor to Gainesville was "arrested" for breaking this law in 2009
      It's mostly a PR thing for the poultry industry

  • @thatpedanticcommenter5847

    Here's the way I see it: if it's a kind of fried food or fast food where eating it with a fork and knife would cause more problems to finishing the meal, it may be easier/preferable to use your hands. However, if it's greasy enough to fall apart in your hands if picked up or just doesn't have very good internal structural integrity, it's preferable to use a fork and knife. Now, I can see someone picking up and eating fried fish with their hands if it's done right, I just don't personally do it because it's not bite-sized enough for me to justify doing that. The same would go for very large chicken fingers (but not necessarily all chicken fingers).

    I'm half and half on this, fish and chips you would eat with a knife and fork (the fish at least) but a chicken drumstick anyone who eats them with a knife and fork is out of their fucking mind (looking at you NL).

    I sympathized with NL during the fish and chips debate. As a hands eater myself I can see the arguments for at least a fork, but when he got to the ribs and pizza I just wanted to put a stamp on his beautiful shiny noggin with the word SNOB.

  • @SoopDwagg
    @SoopDwagg Před 7 lety +1

    everyone single one of them is outta there damn minds, the only obvious answer is to do either one when it's appropriate. 4kg fully breaded fillet? knife and fork that shit, under 2kg hands are just fine.

  • @armorend1334

    Depends on the size of the fish. If it's a small chicken tender-sized fillet, then hands are the way to go. If it's a bigger slab of fish then you gotta use a fork.

  • @latersatyr
    @latersatyr Před 7 lety +1

      MALF, I used to love you, but I just don't know anymore... to think the small town Canadian of the NLSS is a fork-using city slicker snob. Despicable.

    I know NL is often playing a character that is actually unreasonable, but holy shit... the man will eat saucy wings with his hands but can't bare the thought of holding a battered piece of fish with his hands. YOU HAVE TO WASH YOUR HANDS AFTER EATING REGARDLESS, JUST PICK UP THE FISH.

    I can understand why people use forks with fish; however, I personally use my hands. Bonus: Dipping fries in ketchup is the only acceptable method.
