for filet’s sake

We always enjoy it when you listeners share your insider knowledge when we speak of something relating to your various occupations. So thanks are due to Wade in Mansfield for illuminating us as to the filet-o-fish-buying demographic:

I work at McDonalds, and I can safely say that the people who eat a filet-o-fish are
– Indians
– Middle aged women
– One of the idiots who works with me.

If I ever have to make a fillet-o-fish, i scream “FFS” in an attempt to make the customer realise what an awkward shit they are being. Why would you come to McDonalds for a fricken cheap piece of fish in a shit piece of steamed bread and some minging tartar sauce?

Well, that’s another question entirely. Ours not to reason why, Wade.

    I watched an episode of Eight Out of Ten Cats where James Corden discussed buying a fillet o fish! Hahaha

    Eastern Orthodox might be an another group that buys it. They fast for a couple months and fish is the only meat that they are allowed.

    By that logic, McDonald’s should also sell fried capybara!

    Oh, you guys addressed my comment in the podcast. I should listen before commenting.

    The only time the fillet o fish makes an appearance in my town is during Lent, when Catholics who found themselves in a McDonald’s on a Friday quite by accident can guiltily order themselves a “fish” sandwich.

    Of course, that’s all part of the penance process. I always assumed that was why the fish sandwiches taste so bad; McDonald’s has heavy connections with Rome.
