Mini Golden-Fried Cod Sandwiches

The A&W Cod Sliders are a Tasty Beef and Chicken Alternative

— February 1, 2020 — Lifestyle
The A&W Cod Sliders have been introduced by the brand as a new offering for the Lent season that will offer consumers an alternative sandwich to enjoy in place of beef and chicken varieties.

The sandwich starts off with a cod filet that has been golden-fried to perfection before being topped with tartar sauce and dill pickles to offer a crisp yet creamy finish. The slider is served on a potato bun that's soft and squishy for the perfect marrying of textures.

The A&W Cod Sliders have been launched as a new item alongside the returning Pub Style Baskets that all highlight seafood items for consumers to enjoy when avoiding meat for religious purposes. The various items will be around for a limited time only during the Lent season.
