I don't know if you can make a blanket statement like that, it would have to be assessed on a person-by-person basis. Some people taste gross.

Has anyone spotted the mcrib in SoCal, greater LA area?? I haven't had one since I was a kid, and I barely even remember what they taste like, but I want one now.

This is something to celebrate?

Have you ever worked at a McDonalds? Do you know how badly they treat their employees ... and how really good their food is?

Obviously not ...


This is like celebrating getting a huge pimple ... on the tip of your nose ... right before your prom.

I worked there for 2 years in high school, other than low pay and hard work they didn't treat me bad
 
Ever wonder why they keep bringing it out for "a limited time" when the majority dislike it? McD's spent BIG bucks on designing the equipment and the processing of the meat like substance. So, they periodically check to see if their marketing folks have succeeded in elevating the lowest common denominator to the top in the real world as opposed to their utopia where everyone eats anything with a corporate logo on it.

It's simple, BBQ is a regional food with strong local ties that resists any attempt at 'one size fits all.' But all you gastro cowards needn't give up hope. Food trends cycle roughly every thirty years. So, by my estimation, McD's and all the other hobgoblins of corporate food services have another generation to turn Americans into zombie eaters.

I'd be interested too. Somehow I doubt it though.

<--- From NYC and McRib are either not available or all sold out, I can attest to the latter. 🙂

Might be some hookers left though if you're quick about it.

Once or twice a month in middle school the cafeteria would serve "Ribeques". They were exactly the same as McRibs, and everyone went absolutely ape-shit over them. I never got one.

How do you know they were exactly the same, then? I've had similar rib patties with BBQ sauce, but they've never been exactly the same.
 
It seems it always comes back in the fall/early winter time. Maybe some pig farms somewhere don't feel like paying the heating bills for their pigs in the winter time.
