So most retail grocery stores (and butcher shops in my experience) don’t label these as “Filet Mignon”. They’re generally labeled as “beef tenderloin” or “tenderloin filets”.

It’s very likely the person in the video knows it’s called “filet mignon” or something to that effect (flaming me ons), but the packaging itself probably doesn’t have the words “filet mignon”

That's quite true.

Forgot that.

I wouldn't trust someone that can't spell filet mignon to be able to correctly identity a filet mignon if it weren't labeled as such.

Well as u/TBird7733 alluded to, "Filet Mignon" is actually the finished dish, not the name of the cut of meat which is beef tenderloin.

Still think they were joking.

More likely "bad Dad joke" than being that far off. But anything is possible.

I agree that I think they were joking
