They've offered that sammich for more than a decade in several markets.  I like it much.

It's similar to the Subway Seafood sandwich.  Lots of mayo.  Maine, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia McDonald's seem to have it as a standard item, at least in the Summer..

Seriously.
 
Fast food in general is something I stay the hell away from.

I remember being on the road in New England in the 90's, and passing McD's along the Maine coast and seeing the signs for them.  No idea WHAT'S in them, but evidently not a new development in some markets, anyway.
 
I've been teaching myself to cook as I'm just so outdone with most restuarants, so many chain joints and so few handmade, individually run places, and it's very hard to find my Texas and Louisiana faves in Tennessee.  It was all worth it now that I can make brisket, red beans and rice, and as good a Muffaletta sammich as I could get at the Central Market in the French Quarter!

Do you pick your own from a tank on the 'Drive-thro' and it comes cooked at the check-out, I wonder!!  Sounds a bit crunchy. Glynn

I could do with less/no mayo.  It's on a split-top bun with some shredded lettuce.  Don't knock it 'til you try it.
 
Subway has had a seafood sandwich for-e-ver.
 
And yes, I generally try to stay away from fast food.  Sometimes when I travel it's the quickest/easiest way to eat though.

Have you USA guys ever tried indian/asian food
Here in the UK we are renouwned for some of the best Indian cuisine in the world.
I once had an Indian meal in San Francisco..I chose the classic Tikka Masala..it certainly did not taste the same as my local restaurant's dish.

Chicken Vindaloo is an old favorite of mine, and I love Phở.
 
**Okay, that was supposed to be Pho with an accent mark.  I guess the code for the forum didn't care for it.

Back when I was a truckdriver, there was an Indian restaurant in Scherrerville, IN, I frequently stopped at for lunch; don't know what anything was because at lunchtime they had a buffet.  I just ate everything & it was all amazing!
McBunghole's?  Not for about 30 years, and never again.

Terry -
If you ever make it to Milwaukee you need to go to  Anmol (http://www.urbanspoon.com/r/43/470057/restaurant/Historic-Mitchell-Street/Anmol-Restaurant-Milwaukee target=_blank) they are more Pakistani than Indian, and there is no Americanization to their cooking. Evertime my wife and I go there we try something new and have yet to be dissappointed. Their garlic naan is awesome!
