Oh, look, a fast food restaurant I never eat at is bringing back something I've never eaten.

The way I've seen it described, you'd think the McRib is the fourth coming of Crystal Dragon Jesus.

There are some who walk until their legs fail them and they fall to the ground. I find that respectable.
Then there are those who drag themselves further. I find that admirable.

I had an SUV in front of me go through the other night and order 8 Large McRib meals with Sweat Teas. It was insane. Then when asked to pull forward to wait on their meals, they pulled about 5 feet forward and stopped, pinning me between them and the van behind me.

Gotta love the two major camps in the McRib battle.

There are the people like me that love the McRib, if only I could get it with a Shamrock Shake.

Then there are the people who belive I should go to hell because I like something with fat in it.

I feel really bad for the people who don't "get" the McRib. They're living an empty life and don't even know it.

There are the people like me that love the McRib, if only I could get it with a Shamrock Shake.


You know...I never thought about that before. Wow. It just occurred to me that a McD's up the road still had Shamrock Shakes over the summer. Methinks I'll swing by this week and explore that option. I'll be sure to let everyone know how it goes.

How about the McDLT? Hot side hot, cold side cold. Guess that died when they ditched styrofoam containers, if nothing else.

At least we still have this wonderful song-and-dance from George Costanza...

Hotlanta style.( for the most part) given my local...though there are a few pit places around who do multiple regions...even Cajun BBQ.

Pshaw.

I can drive up to a window and in about 90 seconds have someone hand me, say, 3 McRibs that I can easily shove them down my gullet while driving. After which I feel completely, horribly bloated and disgusted with myself.

Can your sloppy, quality non-processed sandwich do all that? I don't think so. Cripes, next you'll be arguing "why are you eating a McRib when you can get a 7-course meal at Le Bec-Fin?" Fancy pants.

Gotta admit, I miss the Carolina vinegar sauce, tangy, sweet and just a hint of fire..... and can't get that here.... but know a couple places that do an awesome brisket.
