  • The Filet-O-Fish sandwich is experiencing a second-wave Renaissance, with chefs across the country serving up original takes on the iconic fish sandwich at full-service restaurants. Here's where the nostalgic taste will excite your inner child.

The article from Food & Wine discusses the McDonald's Filet-O-Fish sandwich, detailing its history, ingredients, and cultural impact. Introduced in 1962 by Lou Groen, a McDonald's franchise owner in Cincinnati, the Filet-O-Fish was created to cater to the local Catholic population who abstained from meat on Fridays. The sandwich features a breaded whitefish patty, a slice of American cheese, and tartar sauce on a steamed bun, which has remained largely unchanged over the years. Despite its simple composition, the Filet-O-Fish has sparked various reactions; some appreciate its nostalgic taste, while others critique its flavor and texture. The article also explores the sandwich's unique place in fast food culture, its occasional menu variations like the Filet-O-Fish Deluxe, and its role in McDonald's marketing strategies, including promotions tied to religious observances. Additionally, it touches on the broader implications of fast food chains adapting to cultural and dietary preferences.
