    I can see the pickle. Extra tartare not so much.

    #1452 2 years ago

    Today's lunch using one of my freebie complainer coupons.

    I think we're seeing some remarkable improvements!!

    That does look respectable but I gotta knock it down a little for cheese on the bottom?

    Quoted from Pinbub:

    Agreed there. Not perfect, but a miraculous improvement especially considering the borderline inedible FoF's that I've endured recently.

    A huge win for me, and step forward for all FoF fanatics everywhere.

    This McDonald’s puts the extra tartar under the filet.

    Has not the cheese always been on the bottom?

    NO

    Edit: apparently I'll be having the FoC today. Filet of Crow
    I just checked the official site and cheese is on the bottom. Weird because I usually get it on top. How is it supposed to get a little melty?!

    I'll fire off a letter to "team Kroc" and try to get to the bottom of this. I'm on vacation at the in-laws,....... Nothin' better to do!

    Maybe they'll send you some Free FOF coupons in response!

    That would be sweet. I just fired off the email to them.

    Can't imagine complaining to someone who made my food that they put the cheese slice on the wrong side of the protein.

    Don't put the beetroot or the tomato against the bun, right, it affects the bun. But where the cheese is?

    #1464 2 years ago

    In all my years I have never once received or even heard of the cheese being on top of a FoF… you sure you haven’t been eating them upside down?

    #1465 2 years ago

    C'mon, i had one where the cheese was on the bottom of the box under the FoF.

    That is more acceptable than cheese with tartar sauce on top of it!

    Who complained? I made an inquiry about proper FoF assembly, let's not make assumptions or turn it into something it's not. Nice try though Punkin'!

    #1470 2 years ago

    If you read above I only said I wanted to get the right answer. I never complained.

    #1474 2 years ago

    Whoah… color me surprised. Cheese on top must be some progressive West coast FoF-thing. I would take mine back if they tried to play me dirty like that.

    #1475 2 years ago

    It probably looks better in an advertisement to marketing.Im in Cali and never found my cheese on top.

    #1476 2 years ago
    Quoted from Pinbub:

    Dang. Only $3.69 for a medium FoF meal???

    And it's a relatively new ad since Coke Zero came out around 2010 or so!

    #1477 2 years ago
    Quoted from SuperGrafx:

    And it's a relatively new ad since Coke Zero came out around 2010 or so!

    The McDs in my neighborhood stopped carrying Coke Zero about a year ago and they pretty much deserve to go out of business for doing so.
    Of course Coke then changed the formula anyway so they deserve the same fate.

    Anyone else want on my list?

    If that were the case I would think marketing would want it to "look better" on their website.

    Cheese down low or up high?

    Low, of course

    Quoted from Jaybird815:

    Why was it on the news?

    Because of a predicted shortage?

    Or a mysterious uptick in sales over the last few months?

    They mentioned lent, and the anchor said this time of year he lives of the FoF.

    That night crew is slacking off a little bit. Good placement on the tarter though. Here is mine from lunch Sunday:

    Good bun, toasted not steamed. Damn near perfect on the tarter, reminds me of the Space Station bumpers. Maximum coverage to the edges without going over.

    Just slightly off on the cheese, not enough to cry about.

    Super nice job on the assembly but that sacrilegious toasted bun!

    #1494 2 years ago

    I've strayed and let temptation get the better of me.

    With Lent in full swing, there are tempting Fish Sandwich deals everywhere just begging for me to indulge in their tantalizing promises of fishy bliss. I've fallen victim to these promises a few times recently, and beg forgiveness.

    None were better than the awesome ultimate granddaddy of them all... The Filet of Fish.

    Quoted from Sinistarrett:

    sacrilegious toasted bun!

    Though I am well aware of the two distinct schools of thought on the issue of steamed vs toasted, I find myself firmly in Switzerland's Camp on this

    #1496 2 years ago

    Bunneutrallity? Impossible! I myself am firmly an adherent to the Steamed Nation!
    Toasted is against my principles.

    #1497 2 years ago

    I would prefer steamed buns but Im not handing nothing back once In my hand

    Went to get a FoF this evening and the bloody restaurant is closed for renovations!
