The Filet-O-Fish is a classic seafood-inspired sandwich introduced by McDonald's in 1962. It features a crispy, breaded white fish fillet, typically made from sustainably sourced Alaskan Pollock, served with a tangy tartar sauce and a slice of American cheese, all nestled between a soft, steamed bun. Drawing influence from American fast food cuisine, this sandwich was originally created to cater to those seeking a non-meat option, particularly during Lent. While it offers a source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids from the fish, its nutritional profile includes higher sodium and fat levels due to the fried preparation, cheese, and sauce. It's a balanced choice for occasional indulgence but may not align with health-conscious eating goals when consumed frequently. Sustainability efforts in sourcing also make it an environmentally mindful menu item compared to traditional beef offerings.
