3 for a child, 5 for an adult. 4 in a sarnie for lunch. Couldn't vote.

Four is a small adult portion, I would prefer six but would restrain myself.

At least four, possibly six.

6-8 in our house, teenagers and adults. With peas or baked beans (and sometimes mash).

Or 4 in a sandwich (with cucumber and brown sauce)

We're all a healthy weight but 3 or 4 wouldn't touch the sides!

With chips and beans I’d have 3 and I’m both overweight and a bit piggy.

anymore is massively greedy.

I only have 2 and I'm not a 'big salad' mumsnet poster just only ever want 2. I reckon three would be average for an adult.

“Massively greedy” is OTT and actually quite a horrible thing to say.

I do 3 for my 3 year old (presuming big standard fish fingers and not the fancy giant ones). So I'd say 6 for an adult.

3 or 4 if I’m very hungry. DH would have 5 or 6 though.
