So.. Filet-O-Fish were my “height of the pandemic cheat food”. I was in a weird situation, living with my soon-to-be ex at their parents place in a suburb. Lockdown in effect. No friends. Forced to eat vegan which I didn’t mind, as I had been eating that way for a couple years anyway… but yeah. I had to get out, man. I’d go on long bike rides but they weren’t that long, as I’d just go to McDonald’s and eat a Filet-O-Fish alone by a pond. Then I found out a they had doubles.. and you could ask for extra tartar sauce. I was getting experimental.

Anyway. I haven’t had one since I got outta there, but uh… nice painting!

My pandemic guilty pleasure was a filet o fish, mac sauce instead of Tatar sauce and add pickles. The workers give me dirty looks everytime, but it taste great!

That’s a lovely story actually. I can imagine the bicycle cruising through the silence of lockdown and the person eating their t/a by a pond.
I live in Melbourne where lockdown was brutal and imagine the Maccas in Clifton Hill

I love their filet o' fishes, they're not too salty like most fast food fried fish sandwiches. Looking at you Burger King. They're so expensive that I'll only buy it if its BOGO (or like 29cents through their app if you buy a second one). It's such a small sandwich and I always talk myself into getting something more filling like a few McDoubles/Chicken Sandwiches instead.
