They started with a limited menu in the 60s.

Taco, bean burrito, red enchilada, green enchilada, taco burger and frijoles (basically a bean burrito in a cup).

All items were .25 cents.

McDonald’s apologizes for the removal of the McRib from their menus.

The reason was that they had run out of McPigs. Animal Husbandry and Herd Inventory staff have been replaced and so the McPig herds are growing again. Slowly but surely, we will phase back in the McRibs.

On a further note, Ronald McDonald will not return having been exposed as a conservative white heterosexual and wearing a MAGA hat with his uniform.

That’s a straight up lie. It’s formed from ground pork shoulder roast and nothing else.

Remember what Uncle Jed said...”that’s the thing about possum innards, they’s just as good the second day”

Ignore all the braying idiots. Be a man, and go by yourself and get one. See what you think. You won’t be sorry. Everyone deserves a guilty pleasure.

In the not so distant past, I doubted the reports claiming McDonald’s put human flesh in their meat.

Well.... not on a controlled or measured basis. Percentage wise it was almost negligible.

When I worked at McD’s I]d make a fresh filet o’ fish for lunch on my lunch break.

That with piping hot fries is the BEST.

Once either are colder, they are not worth eating.

“in McDonald’s locations across the United Kingdom”

Will the muzzies start burning them down?

Never tried it. I used to go to Gettysburg a lot in my younger days, and always saw it on the menus there.

Yep. I saw it on menus in Philly when I was there during my college years. Never wanted to try it and never did.

Have you ever seen cats and dogs near a McDonald’s? ;-)

Don’t ever read the ingredients label on a package of chorizo.

I’ve never had scrapple, but I like its North Carolina cousin, livermush. Makes a great sandwich if you fry slices good and brown and put them on white bread with a little mayo. Also good for breakfast, sliced and fried with eggs.

As for the McRib, I’ve had a few over the years. It’s nothing special, either good or bad.

I don’t want to be a man. That’s for trannies. 😜

See what you think. You won’t be sorry. Everyone deserves a guilty pleasure.

My guilty pleasures are things like a Fuddrucker’s burger or a Coney Island dog with all the fixin’s from my one of my favorite little holes-in-the-wall in Houston. I used to love me a Big Mac, but the last time I had one, it seemed to have declined in quality.

BBQ is BBQ.

LOL - I’m in Texas. If you consider a McRib “BBQ,” we’re probably better off tipping our hats at each other and going our separate ways. :)

Is McRib actually rib meat?
It looks like processed meat-like substance pressed into something that doesn’t really look like ribs.

I worked there too and agree. Freshly fried is the only way.

Yuk, I had one once when they first came out. Never again. In fact, I’ve finally sworn off McDonald’s altogether after that last few trips when I received old food, or bad dried up fries. The prices are so high they no longer throw out the old food but pawn it off at top dollar to unsuspecting partrons.

It’s not the meat, it’s the heat.

It’s not the sandwich, it’s the McRib Sauce.

I think they should let the patties swim in the McRib Sauce for 24 hours, then pull them and quickly freeze them. That way the meat and sauce would be heated instead of being squirted on the bun cold.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

ALso, make the Burrito Supreme taste and look like it used to.

Well... that would mean adding meat, cheese and black olives back into the B.Supreme and that stuff is expensive. With changes in minimum wage laws we asked the employees if they wanted a raise or wanted to MAKE THE BURRITO SUPREME GREAT AGAIN.

Overwhelmingly they voted for the raise.
