"At just 380 calories, the Filet-O-Fish is one of the leaner paths you can take to good fish sandwich protein, making it a great option for those watching their calorie intake."
"By taking advantage of McDonald's custom-ordering service, you can make a Double Filet-O-Fish, which will give you 530 calories and 26 grams of protein."
"Each extra fish filet contributes another 5 grams of protein and 75 calories, allowing for interesting customization experiments."
Introduced in 1962, the Filet-O-Fish was designed for Catholic customers during Lent. Despite its humble beginnings, it remains popular due to its taste and protein content. With 16 grams of protein, it provides a quarter of the daily recommended intake. While not the highest in protein among fast food fish sandwiches, it is one of the leaner options at 380 calories. Customization allows for a Double Filet-O-Fish, increasing protein to 26 grams with 530 calories, making it a flexible choice for protein seekers.
