Proper fish finger sandwich condiment?

You nearly always are right, but not on this one. Butter is an ingredient with multiple uses, often used in sandwiches as well as a condiment (beef & horseradish, ham & mustard would both be unthinkable without it). It's far, far more than a condiment, and it performs a completely different function.
You're just wrong, sorry.
My childhood says it has to be ketchup.

Butter in sandwiches is interchangeable with other lubricating substances - a deli in the States would offer you a choice between, say, butter, mayo and olive oil, at least the ones I went to did. Butter *can* be an ingredient in cooking, but it isn't in a sandwich, it's clearly not part of the food item itself but rather an extra. Cheese, similarly, can be an ingredient or a condiment - e.g. grated parmesan on pasta is a condiment, cheese in a cheese and pickle sandwich is an ingredient.

inhuman amounts of garlic

Surely it provides a waterproof layer so when you have something like a BLT, the butter stops the tomato making the bread soggy? Therefore butter IS a necessity.

That is not a necessity for me, but even if it were, other fatty products would serve just as well if not better - margarine or mayonnaise or oil for instance.

kerrygold is alright
noting extravagant but not horrible
what gets me is that it seems that kerrygold isn't actually realted to the big creameries in kerry who belong to the kerry group and is just using the kerry name due to the suposed nature of kerry being a milk farming comunity (this at least is fairly true)

Ketchup everytime.
On a side note is £6 to expensive for a fish finger sandwich? That was what I paid here http://www.theslaughteredlambpub.com/#/food-drink/
Seemed a rip off to me but everyone else thought I was being a skinflint.

Like a boss.
Butter is not a condiment.

I hummus, therefore I am ...
My palate isn't what it was as a child.
I find almost anything swamps the flavour of fish-fingers.

It is a famous fish finger sandwich though. For the same price as their non-celebrity sandwiches.
Yeah - rip off. You don't even get chips with it. That's what you get for going to poncey pretentious places though.
As self-proclaimed "Keeper of the Authentic Fish Finger Butty Recipe" I declare that the ingredients for this are as follows:
White sliced bread (medium or thick cut)
Fish fingers
Butter
Tomato ketchup

The fish fingers should be battered not breadcrumbed for the perfect sarnie

tartare, mayo, ketchup, hp, salad cream, in that order. but what fish fingers are they? butter or marge? questions, questions. this shit really matters though.
sorry, hadn't read all of thread. thick cut white bread (tesco's is good), full fat salted butter (loads, so it melts and drips all over the place), 4x bird's eye cod fillet fishy fingers, salt'n'pepper, little bit of tartare or mayo. nom, bigtime.

This is correct.
I love the idea of 'proper' accompaniment to fish fingers. it should be ketchup. some chips and a side order of baked beans. You're trying to give a kids meal staple a ponce makeover.
Besides, it's all a bit passe, isn't it? Fishfinger sarnies (and twiglet salad to boot) were on the menu at the Social a decade ago. The frightfully correct types will be glad to know that they offered ketchup or salad cream.

Given they are probably homemade fishfingers, I'd say it was fine.

Had a not-entirely-serious argument about this in the pub yesterday after one of the chaps started eating packets of ketchup and another of our party described it as "council house sauce". Eventually we decided to club together and commission one of those "real dolls" with one tit full of ketchup & one full of brown sauce - refillable.
It was that kind of afternoon.

Salad cream. For the simple reason that there is absolutely no other use for the stuff.
