Yes, that is bone shaped meat! There are no bones, obviously, so to make this alleged food they put the processed pork-like flavored meat in little McRib vats that are shaped to look like that. Absolutely nasty.
I worked at a McDonalds when I was in high school, briefly, and after closing I took some extra food home. Somehow a McRib found its way into the bag. No way I was eating it. So I put it on the floor for my dog to eat. He wouldn't eat it. My dog sniffed it and gave me a look like I just slapped his face. Then he went around the corner and licked his ass to get the McRib smell off of his nose.
I've eaten some wicked crap in my day but how someone actually pays money for this abomination then purposely and willfully puts it in their mouth and lets it slide down there throat has to be mentally deranged.
I bet if you had one of those trays they use to shape the McRibs in the McDonalds factory and took a dump into it after eating a few of them you could just slide it in the oven and have a brand new McRib.
Of course when getting the McRib meal you can get some french fries and that diet coke for the health nut in you.
I've never actually tried it. We're not huge on McD's anymore since we lived across the street from it when I was little and we went there ALL THE F'N TIME! Why was mcd's a huge part of my generation's childhood? WHY DANGIT! And what ever happened to GOOD happy meal toys?...... but i digress.....
if i want some ribs, i'll go to Tony Romas. McRibs ain't got NUTTIN' on baby back ribs.
Remember that simpsons episode where homer joins that group that follows their burger all over the place? everytime they bring the mcrib back it reminds me of that episode.
Man... I think that I need to get my crippled ass to Tony Romas, now. It's been years... but, I'm in need of their ribs!!!!
I like the McRib, and have since I was a kid!

It's a stupid marketing ploy. When it was first on the menu full time it tanked, to they brought it back in spurts and make it a big deal. They have to make more money in its limited release than they would if it was on the menu all the time.
When I worked there they had this new sandwich called the Arch Deluxe. It was the best thing ever. I would smash a few of those each day. Probably why I gained 15 pounds in a year working there. Ugh. But it was worth it. Plus shedding fast food weight is easy when you stop eating the crap.

That looks like it has thousand island dressing? I thought you were anti-T.I.D? I SMELL A CONSPIRACY!
And... i'm afraid to ask what the nutritional facts are for mr. mac. Mr. BIG mac, that is. Now THAT'S a delicious sammich.
Does anyone remember those commercials back in the days with the guy with the freakishly large moon head and shades? that guy freaked me out. I still have nightmares....
Or when McDs had that promotion where you buy one of those little records (yeah, it's THAT old) where people are singing the big mac song and if YOUR record is the one where they sing it CORRECTLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH, you win money or something? Apparently, I lived in McDs when I was little.
It wasn't thousand island dressing, it was something else.
Mac Tonight was the bomb. I remember that record promotion. Never played it because I didn't know how to play a record. To this day I never have. Screw records like the McRib.
we still have records. i love records. You know, i had a friend in college who was a dj and when he found out that I had the original Thriller on vinyl, he flipped. He offered me money for it. Sadly, it's my pop's so no go, but WHAT? WHY? I'M SURE IT'S EVERYWHERE! lame.
We have some oldies but goodies on vinyl. they rock!
My mind never went there. A turd produced by a McRib. A disgusting concept indeed.
As for records: Don't let the propaganda artists fool you. They sucked. They sounded awful. The audio purists claim it was better, but they was scratchy and inconvenient. Had to change out those damn needles all the time. Bogus invention.
What I do miss is the Album covers, the art of it, the size of it. I posted in the cars forum, my old zz top album. Having those full sized album covers was awesome with a capital A. I wish I still had mine.
So like, fast food pork is just nasty to begin with. I can deal with the hamburgers, chicken, even fish... but pork has no business in a fast food joint.
It should be banned from the universe forever.
But notice the clever name: McRib. It's not 'McRibS'. Since it's all processed pork meat put together to look like a small set of babybacks it is technically one rib.
As a matter of fact, there's nothing even saying the meat actually came from the rib. It could be pig wang for all we know. It just says pork.
Yeah, just boneless pork. Could come from anywhere on the pig. As a matter of fact it could just be one whole pig grounded up in a giant grinder then it is put in a vat like a pig milk shake and boiled. Then the piggy silly putty is taken out and put in the rib bone shaped tray and slathered with the sauce as beasty McDonalds factory workers run their gloveless finger over it and taste it.
I only eat Wendy's, its the best fast food there is. You can eat relatively healthy and super cheap. I always order chili and a frosty from their super value menu. There is no comparison. Wendy's is awesome!
i'm all in n out.
Carl's Jr. is second.
del taco is third
Then maybe jack in the box
perhaps wendys
then burger kind
never mcdonalds or arbys
did i miss any?
Dude, you don't have Arby's where you live? For shame.
Wendy's is alright. The square meat freaks me out. Back in high school when me and the peeps would walk on air the Wendy's frosty was like heaven on Earth.
In & Out is the best, easily.
Jack In The Box
Del Taco
Carl's Jr
Arby's
You are insane. Those beef burger deals with the melted cheddar cheese. Man. I know people that I would gladly never talk to again if I could have just one of those sandwiches.

Wendy's is dope, but it's funny that you talk about the healthy choices then mention the chili and frosty... just sayin.
He's ruined it for me.... that is a fact. I can't eat a McRib now, because of him, and this damn thread. I think that I should sue him, for doing this. Ruining the appetites of innocent, unsuspecting people.
Lawless said this in post #60 : Yeah... someone better inform illuminate about this. She might want to reconsider going out in public with him this weekend.
Hey, it's my job to tell the cold hard facts about the nasty ball of porky goo better known as the McRib. I spread the paint of truth across this murky canvas in hopes that the McRib will not creep through the colon of another unsuspecting fast food fanatic.
