McRib sucks. I hate saucy sandwiches. Double 1/4 pounder with mac sauce. Too bad its like the worst thing on the menu.

Juice is bad for that. "Made with 100% fruit" but in reality what they really mean is that part of the chemical soup is a small amount of 100% real fruit added to it. "it's made with 100% fruit" not "it is 100% fruit". Play on words. So many products do this now.

LOL, maybe Michigan is special for selling non-chemical soup juice but I've yet to see it (coming from someone who reads labels).

Edit: Holy crap I love McRibs.
 
I still can't figure out the love for the McRib sandwich. It's an abomination of food. Why not get a real bbq pulled pork sandwich?

Maybe because fast food places don't sell real bbq pulled pork sandwiches?

This seems like asking "why not get a real steak" to someone buying a hamburger.

Haha, that McDLT commercial featuring Jason Alexander - and the product itself - is so terrible.

What is the worst thing you could possibly do when widespread famine in Africa is all over the news? Release and market a McAfrica burger – something to chow down on while watching the poor starving children on TV. The problem with this product was not in the poor flavor, it was in the poor taste timing of the advertising campaign. This is not the first time McDonald’s made this mistake – in 2002 they released the McAfrika in Norway which contained beef and vegetables in pita bread. The backlash was severe so McDonald’s put donation boxes for famine relief in all stores selling the product. With such brilliant marketing, perhaps we can look forward to a McHolocaust in the future.

I'm not sure, but somehow you seem to be implying that a hamburger is a hamburger by that comment. McD's hamburgers (BK, Wendy's, etc.) are awful compared to a real hamburger.

While a McD's hamburger and other fast food joints are indeed awful compared to a restaurant/home made hamburger, what makes them not 'real'?

But even if that's the comparison you were trying to make my point still stands. It would be silly to say "Why not get a real hamburger"? The answer is obvious - convenience and price.

Show me a 'real' hamburger, or a 'real' pulled pork sandwich that I can make/buy that is as easy and as cheap as a Whopper or a McRib.
