I get it ---when I go to McD's I am thinking hamburger. I con't even remember the last time I had a filet o fish. I had a coworker years ago who also managed a McD's and would show up with random burgers for us all the time, so that's probably the last time I ever had one... ;)

Nice! I can't remember why I bought that one ---but I got it at an import shop a long time ago. Last time I made hot sauce I actually used it because I couldn't find the normal white vinegar... ;)

Personally, I really like the fish sandwich stuffed with the fries. What drives me crazy--and I noticed this on your sandwich--is that the filet is never centered on the bun and can't be readjusted because the cheese acts like a glue. I might have to try the malt vinegar. Thanks for the video.

Yep the filet-o-fish has been shrinking for years now, and the price has been increasing at the same time. They cost about as much as a house downpayment in Australia now. When they're fresh though with that tartare sauce they're still amazing.

Yum, malt vinegar. Haven't had that in quite awhile. Going on my next grocery list. That was a good idea adding the fries to the fish sandwich. Going to make a homemade version.
