Mrs. Chef says, “She’s out of luck, but she has good taste.”
Not sure if she meant your opinion of my cooking or my sweet sweet hawtness.
I was sadly disappointed to learn that the McRib farewell tour won’t even be visiting NE Ohio. While they don’t show it very clearly, the map of where the tour is visiting doesn’t appear to show any locations in the NE USA…
Here’s hoping it isn’t really a farewell… The McRib is juicy goodness…no matter how artificial it might be…
I’ve got to say I’ve never had a McRib, but I really, really miss the Arch Deluxe…oh, Arch, my love, why hast thou forsaken me?
Diosa, that wouldn’t happen to be Kanye’s workout plan, now would it?

The McRib or “makku ribbu” is also available at McDonald’s Japan outlets for about 3 weeks, once or twice a year. I love them. 
** Chef**, you’re a Texan! Come on man, show some self respect. That shit ain’t BBQ.
I mean northerners might think it is, be we Texans are supposed to know better.
From this point on; you’re dead to me…
Good God yes! I lvoef that thing! The odd thing was, it was marketed as the burger for adults, yet I loved it when it came out, and I was around 10 or 11, IIRC.
[Krusty] I don’t mind the taste! [/Krusty]
Photographic proof, please.
My great-grandmother, who NEVER ate fast food, somehow got a hold of a McRib one year. After that, whenever she saw them advertised as being available, she would order my dad to McDonald’s so that she could buy them for her and my whole family. The urgency she implied was as if it were a life-saving mission. I was never really a fan, but wanted to let you know I believe my great-grams approves of your boycott even in the afterlife.
You’ve got to be kidding me.
Folks, just grab yourself a Gardenburger meatless rib patty and some French bread if you want something that is both healthy and tasty. No, I’m not a vegetarian but I don’t care how good the sauce may be, pig snouts & anuses are not on the menu.
The only upside is that, after a few of those, you just might be ready for Fear Factor.
::sigh::
Why is it that everyone assumes that McDonald’s products are made of the absolute worst products ever? With all of the millions (billions?) of dollars of profit that McD’s has made over the years, do you really think that they would throw in the snouts and assholes in order to save 2 or 3 cents a case? (because those two parts represent such a small part, by weight, of the finished product.)
McD’s isn’t gourmet by any stretch of the imagination, but there’s really no reason to believe that they’re feeding what you imply that they are.
I make no comment on the quality f the food. i Don’t eat at McDonald’s for a variety of reasons.
But your claim misses the point that the millions (billions?) of dollars of profit made by McDonald’s might arise precisely from the sort of cost-cutting that you claim isn’t. happening. When you sell as much stuff as McDonald’s does, saving a few cents per unit can lead to massive increases in total profit.
What about McCoon?
You say this as if it were a bad thing. :dubious: But the odd spare parts from cattle that go into “hamburger” are still good eatin’, right?
Since posting images on the SDMB isn’t allowed, you can always go to my LiveJournal - it has a picture of me prominently displayed at the top.
Now you look HERE.
Even if it wasn’t fast food, it wouldn’t be Texas barbecue because it’s made of pork, for cryin’ out loud.
I’m no state traitor. I get my barbecue from Sonny Bryant’s like all the authenterati do.
This may have been part of the reason the Arch Deluxe failed.
This is what I love about the SDMB.
Where else would a McRib discussion bring up Abbots? I took my wife there on our first date over 13 years ago. We absolutely love the place.
What goes in an Arch Deluxe ?
What didn’t go in an Arch Deluxe?
I think it was a quarter pound beef patty, lettuce, tomato, bacon, a potato roll, and a DELICIOUS sauce. It was some kind of peppery mayo sauce.
Well, could you please get them to open a few locations in Austin? I miss the turkey sandwich with pork sauce.
