McDonald's just made major change to the Filet-O-Fish for first time in 50 years
Filet-O-Fish fans, your time has finally come! That's because McDonald's in the UK is introducing a brand new twist on the iconic burger, for the first time since it launched here. After 50 years of it being a Maccies staple, you'll finally be able to order an even bigger version of your favourite menu item, as the fast food chain is releasing a Double Filet-O-Fish. The new product, which will cost £5.29 individually, or £7.39 as part of an Everyday Value Meal, features two Pollock fish patties in crispy breadcrumbs, melted cheese and tartare sauce in a steamed bun. For those keen to get their hands on it, the Double Filet-O-Fish will be launching nationwide from July 1, and joins other new items like the Big Arch in the line-up. However, this won't be a one-off or limited-edition item, it'll be a permanent edition to the menu. To celebrate the launch, you'll be able to get your hands on the new item for just £2 all day on July 1, when you order via the McDonald's App – which is less than half price. And that's not all, a vintage character is coming out of retirement to celebrate the new burger. Phil A. O'Fish has returned to settle the debate of how to pronounce the product name correctly. So if you've ever wondered if it's Fil-LAY or Fil-LET, there's now an official answer… And we're sorry to say that if you've been saying Fil-LET, you've been getting it wrong, as it's actually Fil-LAY. But at least now you know, so when you go to order one soon, you won't butcher the name. According to McDonald's the iconic fish sandwich dates back to 1962 in the USA, when Lou Groen, a Maccies Franchisee from Cincinnati noticed a decrease in sales on Fridays. This was because the restaurant was located in a predominantly Roman Catholic neighbourhood and catholics abstain from eating meat on Fridays. As such, Lou convinced McDonald's to test a breaded whitefish sandwich. The fast food chain initially wasn't keen on the idea, as fish required a more complicated cooking process. McDonald's wanted to instead launch a Hula Burger – a slice of grilled pineapple and cheese on a bun – and founder Ray Krok agreed they'd launch the Hula Burger and Filet-O-Fish on a Friday and whichever sold better would be added to the menu. The final score? Hula Burger: 6, Filet-O-Fish: 350. And the rest, as they say, is history. Filet-O-Fish fans have been sharing the excitement for the product on Instagram, but also in a revived Facebook group from 2012 that has gone viral. The Filet-O-Fish Facebook Society has been flooded with 3,000 new members and anecdotes, with people hailing the burger the 'best sandwich going', some proclaiming that 'one is never enough', they 'live for them' and 'adore them'. More Trending In response to the news about the Double Filet-O-Fish, Amy Louise Bryan said: 'I FEEL SEEN! Breaming with excitement!' While Rebecca Lo commenteD: 'Ahhhh!! I'm soo happy!!!! Best news ever!! Going to order two Filet-O-Fish now and turn it into a Big Fish Mac, to celebrate! The 1st of July is too far away.' And Rebecca Man wrote: 'Beyond excited for this. Finally!!!!' View More » However, some have already started begging McDonald's to release a triple version of the fish sandwich. Whether they'll get their wish remains to be seen… Do you have a story to share?

McDonald's UAE to donate 100% of Sundae sales on June 12
McDonald's UAE will mark its first-ever McHappy Day on Thursday, 12th June with a nationwide initiative aiming to improve access to free healthcare for those in need across the UAE. For the full day, 100% of proceeds from all Sundae sales at McDonald's UAE restaurants, and through the McDonald's App, will be donated to the Red Crescent Medical Center. This initiative builds on McDonald's UAE's longstanding partnership with Emirates Red Crescent, now in its seventh year. As temperatures rise across the country, customers are invited to cool down and enjoy one of McDonald's signature menu items – the Sundae, available in Caramel, Strawberry and Hot Fudge flavors, while supporting a meaningful cause. The special day reflects McDonald's UAE's ongoing commitment to the local community, with every Sundae purchase helping to enhance the Red Crescent Medical Center's medical services. 'McHappy Day is about coming together to create meaningful change,' said Walid Fakih, CEO at McDonald's UAE. 'We've been raising donations for the Red Crescent Medical Center for the past two years and we've seen first-hand the difference this support makes. In the spirit of the UAE's Year of Community, with the continued generosity of our customers, we remain committed to finding new and impactful ways to raise donations and support communities across the UAE.' The Red Crescent Medical Center is the only healthcare facility in the UAE offering free treatments to individuals, regardless of age, gender, or nationality. McHappy Day builds on McDonald's UAE's year-round support for the Medical Center, which includes ongoing donation through the in-store kiosks and via the McDonald's App through Rewards Points. McDonald's UAE invites everyone to take part in McHappy Day on June 12 by visiting any McDonald's UAE restaurant, or order through the McDonald's App, to enjoy a Sundae and make a meaningful difference.
