Fish McBites

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Fish McBites are a type of fast food product sold by the international fast food chain, McDonald's. Introduced in 2013, Fish McBites are bite-sized pieces of fish, breaded and deep-fried, served in a small box. They are often consumed as a snack or as part of a meal.

History[edit | edit source]

Fish McBites were first introduced by McDonald's in 2013 as a limited-time offer. The product was developed as part of McDonald's strategy to expand its seafood offerings and to provide a new, snack-sized option for customers. The introduction of Fish McBites also coincided with the Lent season, a time when many Christians abstain from eating meat.

Product Description[edit | edit source]

Fish McBites are made from Alaska Pollock, a species of fish commonly used in fast food and processed fish products. The fish is cut into small, bite-sized pieces, then breaded and deep-fried. The breading is seasoned with a blend of spices to give the product its distinctive flavor. Fish McBites are typically served in a small, portable box, making them easy to eat on the go.

Reception[edit | edit source]

The reception to Fish McBites has been mixed. Some customers have praised the product for its taste and convenience, while others have criticized it for its high calorie content and lack of nutritional value. Despite these criticisms, Fish McBites have remained a popular item on the McDonald's menu, particularly during the Lent season.
