The McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish features a breaded white fish filet, primarily Alaska Pollock, served with tangy tartar sauce and a slice of melty American cheese, all nestled in a soft, steamed bun. Inspired by American fast-food adaptation of seafood, it was originally introduced to cater to those seeking non-meat options, particularly for religious observances like Lent. While the sandwich is a source of protein, the breading and tartar sauce contribute to higher sodium and fat content, making it less ideal for those watching their intake. The fish provides some omega-3 fatty acids, though levels may vary due to the preparation. It's a lighter alternative to McDonald’s heavier beef or chicken items, appealing to those looking for a milder flavor profile, but moderation is key for those concerned about calories and overall nutritional value.
