It's a permanent menu item in Germany.

McRib has been back for a few weeks here in the NW Chicago burbs .... I have eaten at least half a dozen of them since then ....

I think it's funny that someone spent time on creating a tracker... granted they used google to do the work, but still.

It's not funny. It's incredibly awesome. This is the McRib we're talking about buddy, this is serious business.

Oh, and thanks a ton for the link!

It's probably because if they served it in CA they would have to put up one of those signs about something in the building being known to cause cancer.

And last time I was at a fast food joint in Germany they had softcore pron on the tv. It was around 2 in the afternoon, junk food, beer and semi nekkid chicks. Germany rules.

I had a McRib a few days ago at the McDonald's in Harrisburg, NC (just north of Charlotte). It was glorious
