UPDATED NEW: The guy from Mutiara Damansara has just called me to apologize and that’s it. Apparently it was really my misfortune that my cheese happened to be 1/3 slice. And it is usually HALF. Now, would you check whatever is in your bun next time?
UPDATED: The guy from MacD called me to follow up. And just said that someone from the Operation side will call me further to investigate the matter.
P/S: Feedmelah.com has kindly sent me an email interview and they have posted it here, if you wanna know more about me. Do hop over!
Regarding my post about the cheating fillet o fish, I wrote to them and MacD really replied me!
Dear xxx,
Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback through Just Tell
Us.Actually, our Filet-O-Fish does come with a half slice of cheese. I’m
attaching here a cropped photo of the Filet-O-Fish photograph we use in our
materials in the restaurants. You can see that the rectangular piece of
cheese sticking out of the corner is part of a half-slice of cheese, which
is the sandwich’s build up. We have not changed the amount of cheese within
the sandwich since it was introduced.As for the photograph online, the way the food stylist styled the cheese placement was to place the longer half
of the half-slice on the front for aesthetic reasons, if that misled you,
we do apologize.We do hope you will continue your patronage with McDonald’s. Again, thank
you for giving us your feedbackIf you require any further clarification, please do not hesitate to call us
directly.
And what now?

LOL. Did you show them your picture?

So long I did not eat McD I don’t even remember how much cheese they used. I always thought it’s one slice! Didn’t know it’s only half slice and the picture they use is really misleading!
But I thought you complained they use only one third of cheese? Anyway, looking at your photo of the burger you ate, I think the amount of cheese used is way too little! At the very least, put one whole slice there!

I have made homemade Filet-o-fish before and I have to admit it tastes funny with a whole slice of cheese. Kinda throws the balance of taste off.
May 19th, 2009 at 4:25 pm
I don’t think the one you are having have half of the cheese. its only 1/3 of the full cheese. Good reply from McD and think should circulate around for people to see how good they are in doing business. Half cheese only. Haha. That’s really funny.

Chong: i didnt! i just did and replied. LOL
foongpc: all the while i tot they used a full slice! the pictures are always cheating
Trin: hmmm not good with whole cheese?
CK: oh well…talk about the power of marketing!

I’m sure you could order extra cheese for a little more $$$. Do try, and let me know if you like it better.

All the while I thought we get a whole slice of cheese. Wah wah like that one.

Switch to Ramlee’s burger or ditch Mc D’s Fish O’Fillet..
I never like fish fillet before.. its too dry for my taste.

I purposely order a FOF after reading your previous post, yes, it is half slice only. KNS.
anyway, you can always request additional cheese, RM1.
May 20th, 2009 at 8:31 am
What a lame reply. They should at least say they would investigate further.
May 20th, 2009 at 10:18 am
Trinity: yeah for RM1. to take a whole piece of cheese
Che-Cheh: yeah tell me about it. thts wat i tot too!
Jian: OMG RAMLEE! me love!
Calvin Foo: LOL @ KNS. hahaha. but nah, i wouldnt pay for the extra cheese as it is already exp!
KS: so generic n lame! now the dude not replying me anymore after i attached the pic

So, who has stolen you cheese? I better watch out next time before I walk away from McD.
May 20th, 2009 at 5:57 pm
Just stop eating McD.
I stop eating McD since they increase their price. It was still acceptable when I could still get a few cents back from the RM10. Now? I have to take out RM15. For RM15, I can have my favourite beef BKT with extra lean meat and 6 bowls of rice.
Even with the 12-3pm value lunch, I am not tempted.
May 20th, 2009 at 6:59 pm
WOW! you so “Genk”! gal power!
May 20th, 2009 at 10:08 pm
I shift from Mc D to Subway …. I can make sure they dun take away my piece of cheese ! XD
May 23rd, 2009 at 1:01 pm
they should just kill the filet-o-fish of the menu… and yes, ramly burger for teh win~!
May 24th, 2009 at 3:50 pm
At least they replied. They didn’t give you a year’s of Fille-o-fish free of charge?
If you have a minute, do come to my blog to see the Super GT queens.
