“McD’s Filet-O-Fish was created for religious reason”

First of all I’m not gonna talk about religion here it just happened that my favorite McDonald’s burger which is pictured above have religious background around its invention, at least from what I’ve read in howstuffworks and research from Wikipedia.

In the 60s one of the McD franchise is set up in an area where the Catholic population is large and during that time Catholics aged 14 years and above abstained from eating meat on every Friday (don’t worry, nowadays this practice is only done on Lent  ).

So the owner, Lou Groen was thinking on ways to attract Catholics to eat at McD on Friday and he came up with the idea of making ‘fish burger’, the burger become popular among the Catholics there and the rest is history.

No wonder I feel ‘enlightened’ when I ate one of these.
