McDonald’s will become the first national chain in the US to serve certified sustainable seafood at all locations. Many types of fish have been used in McDonald’s products over the years, and though at one time may have been sustainable, the new certification will ensure that all fish and seafood are up to sustainable standards.
In a press release, the company stressed the importance of the move, saying, “We’re extremely proud of the fact that this decision ensures our customers will continue to enjoy the same great taste and high quality of our fish with the additional assurance that the fish they are buying can be traced back to a fishery that meets MSC’s [Marine Stewardship Council] strict sustainability standards.”
