I don’t care for fast food and try my best to avoid it. The one exception is McDonald’s filet-o-fish. I’ve always thought it was a tasty sandwich, and that the quality was better than anything else McDonald’s offers.

According to a variety of experts and those in the industry, yes, the way your fish is sourced does make a difference in the taste. Seafood brand TinCanFish notes that, often, unsustainable fish are grown on fish farms, fed poor diets, and exposed to less exercise and less extreme weather elements; the result is a fish with less fat and flavor.

If environmentalism is at the top of your values, you'll be pleased to know that McDonald's ensures that it uses only wild-caught Alaskan Pollock fish from only sustainable fisheries in its United States Filet-O-Fish sandwiches. Genuine Alaska Pollock Producers (GAPP) says that these fisheries operate out of Alaska's Bering Sea. So, when you enjoy a Filet-O-Fish sandwich, you can rest assured that this fish comes from a very large certified sustainable fishery, making this fish certified sustainable seafood.
