Following reports by Center for Science in Public Interest's (CSPI) which labeled Long John Silver's Big Catch meal the "Worse Restaurant Meal in America," the company responded to the claim.

"Long John Silver's Big Catch is a limited time only special that delivers tremendous value to value hungry consumers. The Big Catch can be paired with a variety of side items including corn, green beans, rice, cole slaw, fries, onion rings and hushpuppies. The Big Catch is a wild-caught whitefish three times the size in weight of our normal uncooked whitefish. The Big Catch basket meal is offered at $4.99 and includes a choice of sides and delicious hushpuppies.," the company said in a statement, according to QSR Web.

"Long John Silver's offers a variety of meal choices including baked fish and shrimp that can satisfy almost every diner's dietary choices."

"We stand behind our published food data and will review any requests from CSPI that raise questions about our data," Long John Silver's added.

The CSPI released a report earlier on Tuesday which said the Big Catch "by far" is the worst meal avaible to consumers when it "comes to clogging arteries." The group reported the meal comes with a whopping 19 grams of saturated fat, 3,700 mg of sodium and 33 grams of transfat, which is 16 times the daily maximum of transfat recommended by the American Heart Association.
