I’m ashamed to admit I like them. I should have a night of shame, wherein I sit eating McRibs while watching Top Gun.
Dear G-d, man!
Turn yourself in, we can help!
Pork? Think smaller. Think more legs.
I’m taking leftover chicken to work for lunch today.
More legs than a pig? Whatta you eatin’, centipede?
mmm
I like them, every time they come around I’ll have a few before they go away again.
There’s good BBQ around here, we also have good burgers and awesome mexican food. But sometimes I don’t want good, sometimes I want a McRib, Whopper, or Taco Supreme. I’m well aware that none of these things are particularly well made foods, and certainly not healthy, but when the craving strikes nothing else will do.
dammit, I forgot the leftover chicken…
One thing to point out about the McRib is that, once in a while, you get a bad piece of meat. It can be kind of hard or chewy with not enough sauce. I had one of these last night after going through the Drive-Thru. This is why it’s important to always get 2! I threw that one out and the other one was as delicious as ever.
McRibs are disgusting, but at least they gave Patton Oswalt meat for a tweet:
The McRib has come back 20 times. Ball’s in your court, Jesus!
I don’t like it that they bring it back everywhere all at once. I liked it better when it came back regionally, adding an air of mystery and discovery and the opportunity to be a travelling McRibhead.
Nevertheless, I’m happy to be consuming it. As before I am moved to celebrate the return of McRib with haiku:
How could Spam on a
Toasted Corn-dusted French roll
Be so delicious?
It’s like a favorite movie. You have to watch it whenever it shows up on TV. But once you buy a copy of the DVD, you never watch it again because, “I can watch it any time.”
That said, I’m off for McRibs for lunch today! Should I go to the Clark Street McDonald’s and listen to classical music? Or the DePaul McDonald’s and listen to 70s pop classics?
I call that affliction “McPica” 
I just had a McRib for lunch. First one since last year. My location had them 2 for $5.
I’m bringing the extra one back to the office for a coworker. I could easily eat a 2nd right now. But at 500 calories one is my limit. I don’t even buy fries or a soda. Got to stay trim and fit.
They do have a unique taste. I get barbeque locally every couple weeks. McRib is just different enough to be special.
I had one last year, expecting a wave of bad-cuisine nostalgia, but it was just meh. I won’t go out of my way to find one this year, or maybe even ever again.
I feel a need – a need for a McRib.
I am leaving work to go watch midget football; a stop for some McRibs is in my future. Og help you if they don’t have the McRib; og help you all!
I had never had a McRib until a year or two ago. It is now my guilty pleasure. I don’t know what’s in that soft patty of meat and I don’t want to know. As long as it’s smothered in barbecue sauce, it’s all good.
Also, now I understand that Simpson’s episode where Homer follows the “Ribwich” around the country. It’s definitely worth a road trip.
There may or may not be two McRibs currently sitting in my belly.
The MAIN-MOST thing about BBQ ribs is the BBQ sauce, and as long as there’s plenty of that and it’s plenty good, that’s mainly all I ask. I do also like a good hungus bone to gnaw on rather than a rib patty, all the better to channel my inner hound dog. When the craving strikes, a McRib may do, I suppose, if there’s nothing better around, but only as a last resort. With due respect to all things Mc, of course.
ETA:
This.
You should speak to your Minister or a Physician.
The point of this episode will be lost on future generations if McDonald’s keeps bringing it back everywhere at once.
I like the sauce, but I really can’t tell the difference between the patty on the McRib and the pork (shape) rib patty that comes in the 99 cent microwave dinners they sell at my local Save-a-Lot.
