Hoki is a fish with a white appearance and sleek body which is quite famous around the coasts of New Zealand or Southern Australia. The fish is well known for its rich sweet flavor and contains an average flaky texture. On the other hand, McDonald’s features Alaskan Pollock fish as the primary ingredient in their Double filet-o-fish, Pollock is preferred because it is appropriate for frying and breading purposes which make it quite tastier even more after cooking, alongside it is rich in proteins, vitamins and Omega nutrients.
