Saw this earlier tonight. I cannot say that this doesn't make me ridiculously happy!!! It's like a beacon of light in a Transatlantic tunnel where you have been lost for days eating old french fries dropped by careless workers!

And just to head it off no I'm not a canoe, I'm old old enough that I ate the original back when they came out. I'm older than chicken nuggets. Which I also love, regardless of their quality...

Ahh, the time of year when snouts and entrails are cheap enough for Mc Rib to return to a hero's welcome as though it just landed on the moon.

You say that like it's a bad thing Wally. Snouts and tails are some of the tastiest parts.

I think it was 2009 or 2010 when they were local the last time. I wss so excited, until I tried it and found out they changed the sauce.

I'll stick to stouffers or banquet for my rib shaped meat patties.

I'll see your (disgusting-no offense) McRib and raise you Alcohol at the Cracker Barrel. (Note: largely a Southern thing, but a sign the bible belt is loosening.

I haven't had a bloody mary for breakfast since college, but a mimosa with hotcakes and their maple syrup sounds surprisingly good. Do they deliver?

Just to be 100% clear because this is 2020, I took this as a jab at people who are, erm,  overly enthusiastic about fast food and ignorant about history.

I am pretty confident the McRib is dog food shapped like ribs and covered with something that is called BBQ sauce

“Most people would be extremely unhappy if they were served heart or tongue on a plate,” he observed. “But flaked into a restructured product it loses its identity. Such products as tripe, heart, and scalded stomachs are high in protein, completely edible, wholesome, and nutritious, and most are already used in sausage without objection.” Pork patties could be shaped into any form and marketed in restaurants or for airlines, solving a secondary problem of irregular portion size of cuts such as pork chops. In 1981 McDonald’s introduced a boneless pork sandwich of chunked and formed meat called the McRib, developed in part through check-off funds [micro-donations from pork producers] from the NPPC [National Pork Producers Council]. It was not as popular as the McNugget, introduced in 1983, would be, even though both products were composed of unmarketable parts of the animal (skin and dark meat in the McNugget). The McNugget, however, benefited from positive consumer associations with chicken, even though it had none of the “healthy” attributes people associated with poultry.
