MCDONALD’S Filet-O-Fish may be one to avoid next time you visit the fast food chain.
According to a Reddit discussion between former fast food chain workers your fish sandwich could have been sitting in the restaurant’s “heated cabinet” for hours before being served.
They then advised customers to ask for a fresh one to be made.
One Reddit user claiming to be a former employee said: “I came here to say this. Seriously. It’s been three years since I worked there but I can promise you that filet of fish is not fresh by any stretch of the imagination.
Another added: “At McDonald’s just say you want a fish filet cooked to order. It will take five more minutes but worth it compared to the filet that has been in the heated cabinet for hours.”
Express.co.uk has contacted McDonald’s for comment.
Earlier this year, a McDonald’s worker revealed what it was really like to work for the chain.
Sick of being judged for his career choice, one man went on an epic Facebook rant which went viral.
Mike Waite, 20, was employed at the chain in Edinburgh and felt compelled to defend his job online.
After leaving a job with a media company, Mike wanted to return to studying this year and needed a job that enabled him to save up money and work flexible hours.
He found that McDonald’s offered just that and his Facebook rant is aimed at those who have looked down on him due to his job.
Describing the people he worked with at the chain, Mike said: “There are people becoming pilots, lawyers, designers, architects and people who are at a point in their life that they will do what ever it takes to look after their family.
“I work with people I would aspire to be like, who have strengths in areas I wish I had, who have overcome situations I never could and who have the determination to not fade away on handouts but rather step up and work for their living unlike a huge number of people in this country.
“In the past I have known and worked with very rich folks in very high end jobs, and a few of them could never match the resilience and work ethic of some of the current lads/lassies.”
It was not just the staff that Mike was full of praise for, and Mike was positive about working conditions too.
He said: “The one thing McDonalds is is a job which is extremely (extremely) flexible, has opportunities for growth and can allow you to do what you want to do.”
