Default Re: Filet-o-Fish

One big selling point of Filet-O-Fish used to be that the buns were steamed. They quit the steaming; sales crashed and there were many complaints. Steaming was brought back.

Haven't had one in a long time, so I don't know if they still do it.

BTW, I worked in a McD's kitchen years back when they still put food in the bins. Official time to let food sit was ten minutes. Unofficial time to let a Filet sit was until you could see the top of the styrofoam box start to swell. Just FYI. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I can't do it. I refuse to eat fish product from a fast food place. I'm not a snob or anything, I just can't imagine
it being good.

I guess it's also weird that I've never had a Big Mac. I eat a Mc D's like once a week and either go with a quarter pounder or chicken sandwich, sometimes both.

Do you not like fried fish? All I can say is try it. If you don't like it, throw it out. If you really think you'll boot at the sight/taste/smell, then don't bother.

I like fried fish, I guess when I think about going to Mc D's I have greasy burger on my mind. I'll get one on the side with my quarter pounder meal next time, that way it won't ruin my meal. Report to come.

I've never had the filet of fish. I'm not huge on fish to begin with, though. I used to be a big mac guy, but recently I haven't been able to get away from that $1 double chee.

One reason I used to get these is because they usually would have to be made fresh and not sit in the bin. I rarely got anything but a hot one.

If you see one sitting around, definitely ask for some change, like no tartar, or extra, or something. Force them to make you a fresh one.

Are any of them really fresh? That's my main concern.

I never used to eat these, because they looked and sounded so nasty. But then I lived in Europe for a while in the 90s and over there they call them Fish Macs. And for some reason, that made them sound appealing. I tried them, I got hooked on them, and now I eat them almost as often as Michael Scott does (though I don't use blue Powerade as a chaser). Now I just wish I could get a Fruits of the Forest Fried Pie over here in the States.....
