Would you trust Dollar General $1 fish filets?

I'm skeptical to the point I don't understand how they can sell flounder and salmon at retail for $1. If it's real filets it would just confuse me further. I mean I don't known of any place that sells any fish for $1. I have never eaten tilapia and never will and I wouldn't even know where to get a tilapia filet for $1 much less salmon and flounder. There has to be some quality issue or some clever / misleading marketing right?

If it’s in the dollar store I am sure the Wolfe put guy has reviewed it. His channel is a good watch

I watched the video OTIS. I guess it's real and sure iwei just to satisfy my curiosity.

However the price still remains a real head scratcher for me even coming from China. You got at least 2 or 3 entities that gotta make a profit off the fish and you're selling it for $1.... that's fricking unbelievable to me....and cost analysis on goods from China is what I've been doing for a living for the last 15 years.

I think about that with the cheap burgers and chicken sandwiches from fast food places. McDonald’s can get you a double cheeseburger with every condiment, salt, pepper, napkins, wrapped and bagged for $1 or whatever. Pretty wild.

I had McDonald's just a few days ago. The value price for double cheeseburger is 2 for $3.

I still agree with you though. And you just referenced materials. There's also labor, transportation, and overhead expenses. At least with McDonald's they can make up for low margins with tremendous volume.

No. I googled though. My background is in sporting goods and electronics.

I've only been to Monroe once in my life. I played a usta junior tournament held at ULM (was NLU at the time). I was defaulted for throwing my racquet too many times

Never played tennis. I took pride in my ability to out cuss any opponent I ever met on the gridiron.
