    Ya know, Subway has one of the better veggie patties available. Just sayin' that because that picture made me think of the veggie patty at Subway.


    Good call, dcfaithful! Indeed, they have one made for them by Morningstar. They made it so it's kinda a meat substitute, but you can still see the mushrooms and olives in it. ....and I hate mushrooms and olives, yet I had one yesterday and it was great!

    I love olives and am okay on mushrooms... but yes, that veggie patty really rocks. I began eating meat again, but I am picky about it. I only purchase sustainable meat and only eat meat at restaurants that pride themselves on serving the same... so when I go to Subway, I either get the veggie delite, or the patty. Both delicious choices. You don't always need animal meat to have a good meal.

    In addition, you mentioned Morningstar, and their Black Bean Burger is actually very tasty.

    so I could go there and ask them to supersize my wiener?

    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.

    They just bust it out from time to time. If it were an all-year item people wouldn't be so crazy about it, but they're so good at marketing it that it keeps the demand high in the limited time they make it available. 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.

    I saw that they were coming back and I thought of this photo. It's pretty disgusting.

    No, it's REALLY disgusting. But I don't know how strong I am...
