McRib 2010-11-02 15:53:17 Reply

So apparently, the McRib is back. This of course means nothing to me because it is exclusive to US, but I do wonder why you Americans go so nuts over it? It doesn't even look at all appetising.

Is it just me, or does that look like a piece of shit in a bun?

I work in McDonalds. I hate the food there after all this time.

But I would eat a McRib any day of the week. Fucking sauce is the shit.

BTW, try asking for the McRib sauce on different sandwiches. It'll only cost a couple extra cents and it'll make your burger 20x better.

Okay to be fair, this is what it is supposed to look like, according to the McDonalds website, though I cannot find a single non-promo image that doesnt look like someone sharted all over a bun.

The McRib?

I've only heard it spoken about by older generations, the descriptions always murmured in hushed, reverent tones. Some say it is a sign of the second coming of Christ, others proclaim it to be the cure for ovarian cancer.

Either way, I'll probably buy one just to see what the fuss is all about.

if I become addicted, you know what you have to do...

Well apparently they are available in every store in the US so make sure to post a picture of your disgusting sticky mess here for me to enjoy.

Well, see, I come from West Kentucky, and we barbecue all the god damn time. So, to me, the sauce covered meat looks pretty damn tasty. I don't see the shit everyone is talking about - I see meat covered in sauce that was wrapped up in a piece of paper.

However, I never ate a McRib, I'll stick with regular ribs, I'm sure it's too expensive for what little you eat.

I do enjoy ribs, though.

But what about this awesomeness? It's the KFC Double Down, it's basically a chicken sandwhich but they replaced the bread with more chicken and filled it with like a million different cheeses.

WHAT!!!! FUCK YEAH!!!

I've never had one... like you I think they look gross. But I have to try one at least once before I die... I've been waiting a good while for it to return.

Finally, I can see what the hub-bub is all about.

They have also trialled a burger made from the skin from the chicken on its own, cheese and bacon.
Also, is the McRib sandwich anything to do with a Simpsons episode where homer becomes a "RibWhich" groupie?

Eh, it's ok.

All it is, is pork rib meat pressed into a pattie shape. Then they put it on a bun and add BBQ sauce.

It's just the sauce and the sloppiness that makes it look gross.

When will they learn that they should just sell chicken skin on its own and they will make a fortune.

Yes, that episode was inspired by it. There were actually groups of people that travelled around to get McRibs when they were only available in certain locations. There is/was a website that had the current locations where you could get one (obviously not necessary any more though).

I have actually had that before. It's not very big but it is good. It is pretty much just some chicken with cheese and sauce.

People just think that it is a symbol of American obesity. It's actually not that bad for you, it just has high sodium amounts. They have a grilled chicken version too.

I love working there, if only because of that.

But it'll kill you, I swear.

Also, only 2 cheeses -- monterary cheddar and pepper jack. There's a sauce on there though.

I hear that the ribs are so tender because they're made from discarded Chinese infants and that's why they're available only once per year.

But that's just what I heard, it's possible, however unlikely, that it may not be true.

It actually isn't all that bad. The sauce on the ribs is to die for, though.
