As several others - I ordered one earlier this winter......much more terrible-er then I remember.....with a decent roll (by fast food standards),, some decent smelling sauce and fresh(?) onions...was temped.....but it was a fail.
postscript - When it returns in another 10 years, I will probably buy one again.
But not before
When I think of the McRib, I think of James Piotrowski.
Can we get Danno to rename the thread to this?Quote:

^^^ that's from my town. It was a tea party rally in the mall parking lot. When a reporter from the local paper asked him about his sign he deadpanned, "it's a cause I believe in"
Man, that's gotta be ten years ago.
He's a good guy IRL. Works with special needs kids and adults.
I like how he’s dressed up like the Gorton’s Fisherman. Makes you think a bit.
So. The McRib is fish?Quote:

Maybe they're having trouble with the permits. Too bad Glade left the pnw. He could've smoothed it over.
No way, he would have lost his shit on the inadequacy of that drive-thru’s width and clearance.Quote:

McRib NFT anyone?

I'd love to hear James Piotrowski's take on this lunacy.
You know he's bidding on this incredible work of culinary art. James was no stranger to lunacy.
I feel like we are just totally missing the bus on all this NFT stuff. Come on people, we have a picture of a train!Quote:

Wife and daughter get home with bag - I see two McRibs...I ask Mrs P-Dawg - You got one too? - She relied that she didn't know what a McRib was, so just ordered two to save time/hassle.
Her 1st (and last) McRib Experience was less-than-a-good experience needless to say.
Man that guy just kills it.Quote:

“This is the 21st century after all,” Chief Executive Officer Adam Aron said Monday on a call with investors after reporting third-quarter results.

Get one while you can because this is the McRib Farewell Tour.
McRib Farewell Tour in America but still available year round in Germany. Somethings not right.
Hold up, is this a farewell tour like the Choco Taco?
The fuck are these corporations doing?
Driving up sales by creating artificial scarcity?Quote:

C'mon. Next thing you'll hear is McDonalds saying OK you guys win, there was just too much backlash so we will be bringing it back, but can't say when. (As soon as the USDA lets us reopen the factory where we turn otherwise-unusable pig scraps and various enteropathogens into McRib.)
The whole McRib thing is just a way to create the impression that they're actually special and specially good, and you have to admit it works. (That said I've never eaten one and don't intend to.)
Are there multiple McRib threads? I could of sworn I told you guys about how the McRib tried to kill me by electrocution. I don’t see
edit: never mind. I found it in the near death experience thread. Fucking McRib

This is gonna be like a Rolling Stones farewell tour - never ending and running on wrinkly nostalgia.
No way, I've seen the Stones twice in the last two tours and they still fucking blow it out.Quote:

It can be a fairly ambiguous pronoun.
Not when it comes to rib-shaped meat patties.Quote:

When the McRib inevitably come out of retirement in a couple years, I hope it coincides with a RS tour and the RS tour is brought to us by the McRib with some cheesy slogan like "True classics never retire" and it will bring a tear to my eye.
