Burger Biggie killer off the Whaler (according the the Wiki) in 1990.

The only fats food fish sarnie of wich I am aware that hasn't morphed
into something totally off-the-wall different is McD's Filet o' Fish.

I like to get a pair of them, fries and a hot chocolate on a cold night
for a filling, enjoyable meal.
