Get all you can while you can. Mickey D's seems to delight in tempting the palate with the McRib only to withdraw them later.
I haven't had one yet. Looks good though. :drool:

Sorry guys - they bring them out until people start finding out what they are really made of, then they disappear. Then bring them back to a new host of first timers.

This baffles me. Can it really be a good business model? Surely the money they make in the few weeks of 'get it while you can' desperation buying can't compensate for the money they lose from constant sales?

Maybe Sharkman is on to something...

McDonalds does a pretty good job "sweeping" the internet too it seems.

For a fast food sandwich YES it's good. And the pickles on top is a great touch. I'm sure it's loaded with fat and sodium but one sandwhich ain't goona hurt. The BBQsauce was surprisingly good.

I haven't had one in many years....I've read that a guy traveled 1,000 miles to eat one. That's hardcore. They aren't that good to travel that far for.

I'd rather not know what they're made of...they're probably made from horses meat and pig testicles....but they're goooooooood.

On Nov. 2, for the first time in 16 years, McDonald's Corp. will offer the McRib at outlets across the U.S., but even then, only for six weeks or so. "It doesn't sell well all year long because people get tired of it," says McDonald's USA President Jan Fields.

People get tired of it? Is that possible mfserge? :poke:
