"The breaded Alaskan pollock acts as a blank canvas for many flavors. A simple upgrade with pickles and mustard can bring more brightness and sharpness to a Filet-O-Fish. The condiment cuts through the fattiness of fish, and the soft, sweet flavor of pollock is complemented by its acidity."
"Onions add a mild, sweet, and savory note, especially since McDonald's uses rehydrated onions that have lost a lot of their sharpness. It also offers fresh, slivered onions on burgers like the Quarter Pounder, so you can choose those as well for an added bite."
"McDonald's has a handful of toppings that are generally free upgrades for any sandwich. That includes onions, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Some Redditors have even reported that pickles come with an extra cost now, too."
The Filet-O-Fish sandwich has remained largely unchanged since 1962, featuring a breaded Alaskan pollock filet, American cheese, and tartar sauce on a steamed bun. Customization options include free upgrades like pickles and mustard, which enhance the flavor profile. Pickles and mustard complement the fish's fattiness, while onions add a mild sweetness. McDonald's offers various toppings, some of which may incur additional costs, depending on the franchise. The versatility of fish allows for numerous flavor combinations.
