"Don’t forget it’s Friday. No meat for some of us."

The first Filet-o-Fish sandwich was developed in Cincinnati in 1962 by a McDonald's franchisee whose store was located in a heavily Catholic neighborhood in that city. Ray Kroc, who acquired McDonald's in 1961, was a first generation Czech American and spread the Filet-o-Fish nationwide by 1965. I don't know if he was personally a Catholic but as most Czechs are Catholic, he would have been familiar with the no meat on Fridays practice.

When did they start serving meat everytine I went there all I got was something the size of a tire patch on a bun.

Fish are made of meat.

Just saying.
