Fish sticks are popular finger foods typically made from white fish, such as cod, haddock, or pollock, which is seasoned, coated in breadcrumbs or batter, and then baked or fried until crispy. Originating in mid-20th century Western cuisine, they are often associated with convenience and can be found in frozen food sections worldwide. Nutritionally, fish sticks provide protein and essential omega-3 fatty acids derived from the fish, which support heart and brain health. However, their health benefits can vary depending on preparation methods; fried versions may be higher in calories and unhealthy fats, while baked varieties are generally lighter. Additionally, breading may contribute added sodium and refined carbohydrates. Pairing fish sticks with fresh vegetables or a light dipping sauce can make them a more balanced meal option.
