And while the grub got the thumbs up from many fans, it had some followers scratching their heads about the mushy peas.
The tweet read: “Fish fingers and mushy peas hot dog at Grimsby Town (@officialgtfc served by @SlipwayG) £5 (with chips).”
Scotland-based Spaniard Joel asked: “Excuse me, what’s exactly that greenish-pea thing made of? Just curious! (I’m not American). Greetings from a piece of Scotland in Catalonia (Borgonya). Love u guys!”
He was told: “Those are mushy peas. Basically, just cook peas until they get mushy and let them cool. They bring some sweetness, and obviously a pea flavour.”
A Canadian mused: “I’ll never understand why you guys put mushy peas on everything. Do they taste different than normal peas?”
He was told: “Yeah they do normally if they are from a chip shop.”

Another person questioned the bread choice and said: “Not sure why this needs to go into a hotdog roll. A cob is ideal for a couple of fish fingers next to each other. Love the added peas though.”
The Conference side – nicknamed The Mariners – should know a fin or two about fish-based tucker.
That’s because the team is sponsored by seafood giant Young’s.
