    Arby's uses a King's Hawaiian bun-- hence the name and the sweetness you were talking about!

      I went to Arby's a couple weeks ago to buy the fish sandwich, but I switched the bun out for the onion one. Pretty good.

    The filet-o-fish is divine when it's fresh. As soon as I saw the sheen missing from the steamed bun, I knew it was gonna be trash since it was cold.

      True THAT!! If you get the fish sandwich made fresh it's not half bad but you do have to ASK for a fresh one and be prepared to wait. Cheese is a waste of time. Double patty, light mustard and extra tartar is all you need. Yum.🤤🤤🤤

      All true, it's unique style and flavor from the others, the pricey. Just wanted to say that the MCD is hit up allow you to add pickles without an extra charge and if you get lucky, they use the good pickles from their new chicken sandwiches and not the Big Mac weak-ass ones. YMMV

      I worked part time during high school from 75 to 77 and McD jad at that time just 1/2 slice of American cheese. Kitchen crew had to cut the pack of cheese into half slices.
      The franchise owner who invented the filet o fish only used half a cheese slice so as to not overpower the fish taste.

  • @giovanniecruz872
    @giovanniecruz872 Год назад +12

    Speaking for me personally, it's Wendy's (panko hits), Popeyes (spice is nice), and McDonald's (nostalgia factor). Arbys missed the mark with the flavors, but you said it and rings true...always depends on who's in the lab making and preparing it but always appreciate the content.. Keep doing what you do 🙌

    • @deebeckham4314
      @deebeckham4314 Год назад +1

      i'm not thrilled with the sweetness of the bun on the Arbys fish. To me, those flavors don't go together. i think i'll ask for a regular bun if i get another.

  • @ivyc7336
    @ivyc7336 Год назад +10

    I like that the Wendy's is wild caught & they give you enough lettuce, pickles, mayo, & cheese. You never know where the fish came from with the other sandwiches, but that Arby's one looks bangin. I like that they use Hawaiian bread too. Hmm..ok I may need to try both. 😊

    Arby’s uses Kings Hawaiian bread, so that’s why they call it the Kings Hawaiian deluxe fish sandwich.

  • @kelvinhooks9399
    @kelvinhooks9399 Год назад +7

    I love onions on my sandwich as well but not on fish sandwich, and I can agree on your placing of the sandwiches. The one good thing about McDonald's is that their fish is a part of the permanent menu, one thing I will say about the Popeye sandwich is that at times it can be over breaded but tastes great otherwise. If you have one nearby try the fish sandwich from Bojangels and Captain Ds. Thanks for the vid😀

    @nikip9161 Год назад +2

    I will always have a soft spot in my heart for the Filet-o-Fish.... There needs to be a full slice of cheese, of course. When freshly made and consumed, it's delicious. Steamed bun, extra tartar sauce, it's delicious. 😋👍

    It's done for Lent. Arby's is the best. Hawaiian roll was used on the Arby's, and that why it tastes a little sweet. I liked the flat bread they used before. McDonald's started selling fish sandwiches in the '70s for practicing Catholics who didn't eat meat on Fridays. That's why people have Friday fish frys.

    JL, I worked at McDonald's in high school during the 90's and even back then, the Filet-o-fish got a half slice of cheese. McDonald's false advertises the amount of cheese on the sandwich, displaying a full slice in the ads. Às far as I know, it's always been a half slice though.

    I love Arby's fish sandwich. Always am happy when they've bring it back.

    I usually go to Mac Donald's for a fish fillet with extra tartar sauce and extra cheese. It's pretty good not the best I've tasted!

    You have to try Dairy Queen's fish sandwich. It's not a seasonal item. Sometimes, it's not even on the menu board, but as best as I can tell, every DQ has it. It's the best thing DQ sells, even better than ice cream. It's in a boring bun and barely anything on it, but it's an amazing cut of fish. If you went into a sit down restaurant and got that piece of fish with a choice of sides, it would be a great dinner. It's a hidden gem. Everybody should try that DQ fish sandwich.

    Wendy's and Arby's fish sandwiches are my favorite fast food picks
