Back in 1991, McDonald's added a catfish sandwich to the menu of their restaurants in several "southern" states: Tennessee, Kentucky, Mississippi, Alabama, and Arkansas, to be specific.

Anyone ever have one of these? Are they still selling them in these states? If not, does anyone factually know why they discontinued them or does anyone care to offer speculation on why they were discontinued?

My take is that if they are no longer being sold that there must have been a lot of competition in these particular states who were already serving catfish sandwiches and that sales did not support their continuance. I say this mainly because the reviews I've read about them say they were actually very good, and it seems to me that the catfish sandwich would have made better sense than their regular fish filet sandwich, at least in this market.

Would love to Google up a picture of one, but all I can find a picture of online, as far as their non-core food items is concerned, is the McLobster Roll in Maine.
