I didn't know they STILL had this sandwich. I had one years ago and it was the worst thing I ever tasted, I'm so glad I don't eat meat anymore.
Peace
I remember several years back they had a "farewell tour" for the McRib, and it was going to be the last time they made it available, so naturally people flocked to McDonalds, but sure enough they brought it back the next year.
I like them though. I have no clue what's in them (I'm fairly certain it's not ribs) but I eat it.
I didn't know they were back until Wednesday or Thursday. I had one for dinner Saturday night because we went to a terror walk and the wait was so long that we didnt' get out until after 9 and didn't want to make dinner so we went to McDonald's. The next day we were busy finishing up some of our Halloween decorations and my girlfriend decided she wanted Chinese food for lunch. I don't like Chinese food, so I stopped and got myself another McRib meal. Whoever came up with this thing deserves a Nobel Prize.
I will say this, though: I can't eat more than one or I'll get a nasty stomach ache. Now they ahve an offer where if you get the McRib Value Meal you can get a 2nd McRib for $1. When I was on line getting my lunch there was a guy in front of me who was asking the cashier if his 3rd McRib would also be $1 or if it was full-price! That's just disgusting.
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

I'll still have a McRib this weekend. Those ingredients are still better than what's in head cheese. I wonder if the stomach in the McRib is much different than pork belly. I've seen Iron Chefs use pork belly before, so I'd say that makes the McRib one step closer to a gourmet meal!

Smithfield is notorious for really poor quality meat and unsanitary conditions. Its a pig factory where quantity, as opposed to quality, reigns supreme.
Its all about how you raise the pig and process its meat. Head cheese made from an organically raised berkshire or kurobata hog will be 1,000 times better than the industrial stuff used by McDs.
Not to discourage your McRib eating, but you cant compare pork products without knowing the source. The eyeball socket of a kurobata is most likely a "better" piece of meat than a smithfield tenderloin.

We have it here in Texas. I got one a couple of weeks ago and they have billboards everywhere.
... Tee hee.
Cheers.
