Customer laments about McDonald’s “pathetic” amount of sauce on Black Pepper Cheese Filet-O-Fish

SINGAPORE: An unhappy McDonald’s customer took to social media after feeling that the amount of sauce served on the Black Pepper Cheese Filet-O-Fish was far too little.

The netizen, who goes by Zacnexsis SuckSeed on Facebook, wrote on the COMPLAINT SINGAPORE page that it was not so much that he only got one fish fillet when he had ordered a double, the bigger problem, it seems, was that there was too little sauce on the sandwich itself.

“Beware hougang mall mcdonald. Ordered black pepper cheese double fillet..got single instead..Wrong order nvm..look at the pathetic sauce given,” he wrote.

The Black Pepper Cheese Filet-O-Fish is a new sandwich from the fast food giant and made its appearance only on Thursday (Aug 31).

The big draw, of course, is the sauce, which sets the sandwich apart from the regular Filet-O-Fish sandwich, which is topped with a tartar sauce.

The netizen must have been eager to try McDonald’s latest offering, as he put up his post on the first day the Black Pepper Cheese Filet-O-Fish was made available.

And he is by no means the only one who feels that there wasn’t enough sauce on the sandwich, as another netizen who reviewed the Black Pepper Cheese Filet-O-Fish on his website wrote that he felt the same way.

“However, in the Black Pepper Cheese Sauce Filet-O-Fish that we had, we felt there was not enough of the sauce to give it enough of distinct taste. The sauce was put on rather sparingly and just gave a hit of what else it could be,” wrote Junwei Ho on littledayout.com.

But Junwei acknowledged that the sauce added flavour to the sandwich, giving it a slight char taste.

The Independent Singapore has reached out to the netizen, as well as to McDonald’s, for further comment. /TISG
