English name[edit]
Someone told me "chicken fingers" the name came from the influence of the 1960s James bond movie Goldfinger. I cannot find a single source to prove it. Benjwong 18:33, 27 October 2007 (UTC).
Your friend is mistaken. The terms "chicken fingers" and "fish fingers" were used in the late 40s and early 50s in Australia, NZ, the UK and the US.203.214.6.147 (talk) 05:19, 14 September 2009 (UTC)
Dish only might be found in the east[edit]
The article says it 'may sometimes be found in restaurants in the East' and the rest of the text infers (at least to me) that's it's actually a very western dish. I used to live in Hong Kong and loads of Chinese restaurants have this on the menu. Many local Chinese cookery TV shows would sometimes cook this describing it as a traditional Hong Kong or Chinese dish.
I think this needs to be re-worded or clarification found because I don't believe it's as western as is suggested. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.178.9.169 (talk) 20:38, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
