McRib is back!!

[Mr N8]

Molded mystery meat sandwich! Blech, the McRib (or anything at McD's) doesn't get me excited.

Negative. You actually lose nutrients and health by eating one of these. Each sandwich takes approximately 6 months off of your life.

I checked McDonalds website and it isn't listed. I also looked up the nutritional values of some of their other fine offerings. It is frightening how bad that crap is for you. One of their breakfasts has 60g of fat!!! :shocked:

No thanks, you can have my McHeartattack sandwich.

It's the Deluxe Breakfast

Do you think it's any different if you have a full egg, two meat, hashbrown and pancake breakfast at your local diner? Or at home?

Funny how it's shocking when McDonald's lists the nutritional info, but you've eaten hundreds of similar meals at home and at full service restaurants and never thought twice.

But, of course, McDonald's is the devil, so only their food is bad.

It's only back for a limited time and then it's being permanently retired...

Hmm... It looks like it's not coming to my area. Must be a regional thing.

 

[purbeast0]

I'm very fit. Hell, I'm a body builder. And you do not see me freaking out over what is a normal large breakfast that has been served in homes and restaurants for hundreds of years like you did.

I wouldn't eat all that for breakfast anywhere. If I eat pancakes for breakfast that's pretty much all I'll eat. If I have bacon and eggs that's all I'll have. Moderation is the key...well, that and exercise.

Yes, you are correct. Moderation is the key. However, many people CAN and do eat all that with no weight or heart problems whatsoever. I have one breakfast like that a week on Sundays when I'm bulking. Through my late 20s I could eat like that all the time and never gain a pound. Now I can almost eat like that, and with my weight training and cardo, I still lose weight.

Anyhow, my point was to single McDonalds out for what is a pretty standard large breakfast plate at any diner and many homes is absurd.

I didn't "freak out" as you put it. Just pointed out some startling facts that's all. You've got to admit that 60g of fat is a lot to eat in one meal and there are people who eat that stuff everyday because it's cheap and convenient.

I could eat a big mac everyday because they're tasty but I won't because eating like that everyday would lead to tighter fitting pants and that's something I'd like to avoid. Sue me.

 

[Gibson486]

Not in my area:brokenheart:

 

[Wolverine27]

The McRib never was very appealing to me, but I guess I'll have to give it a try.

I'd sooner order a "McBBQSlathereddog" than a "McRib"

I just can't get past the fact they hammered it into a little rib-shaped piece complete with "bones."

But I guess I'll have to try one before they are gone for good

I used to be able to eat stuff like that all the time. I'm older now though so even though I do exercise regularly I rarely eat at mcd's because when I do eat there I generally feel like crap afterwards and it affects me on my rides (cycling). I singled out McDonalds because this is a thread about the McRib. I guess I could have looked up Burger King but it wouldn't have been pertinent to this thread now would it?

 

[purbeast0]

can anyone confirm/deny if these are available in maryland?

also, how much are they?

My point is, how did you find out it was "bad?" McDonald's actually listed the info. Something your mom and local diners never would have done.

BTW, the excuse that people eat like this and get fat because it's "cheap and convenient" no longer flies. Even McDonald's now offers lower fat, lower calorie options.

No, you're right. I'm just a little touchy because McDonald's is always the target of mindless slams, even though their food is has the same exact nutritional stats as any similar restaurant or home cooked item.

BTW, I have a high protein, higher fat diet than you do. Probably because our goals are different. I find excellent results in muscle gain with a diet high in beef while I'm bulking.

It's equivalent to eating a hunk of lard

Here in Nebraska, I believe the value meal was a little bit under $4, with the option to get a second McRib for $1.

I definitely agree with you on that point.

I'm doing a 60-70 mile group ride in 2 weeks on Saturday. Should be fun!

Yeah, but almost nobody eats those.

I think they charge three-something for just a McRib. It really sucks. I think it would actually be cheaper to order the value meal with an extra and throw the fries and drink away than to order two ala carte.

There is a McD's 500 feet from me, I suppose I could give it a shot.
