Getty Images Not sports related? Name me one sport on television that isn’t improved if you’re watching while eating a disgusting delicious, tempting McRib Sandwich. Yep, the McRib is back, folks, but with a new, improved twist. The pork creation with the cult-like following is usually only unleashed in a few McDonald’s locations at a time — but this year, they’ll be available at all locations, beginning Nov. 3, and running through Nov. 16.
So there will be no more need for Homer Simpson to purchase the last Ribwich and hide it from ravenous crowds. Or, for this online McRib locator.
Possibly my favorite McRib quote came from the New York Daily News in 2010:
“I’m going to eat as many as I can until I throw up,” says Jenny Wu, a 31-year-old Web designer from Flushing. “It’s so tasty! We don’t know what animals McDonald’s killed to make the McRib, but we don’t care because it tastes so good.”
For those planning to dine on a McRib the minute they arrive, don’t click here. Suffice it to say that PETA is not amused. Also don’t click here.
And, of course, Hitler waited one day too late to order out for one.

I have two friends who came to south Louisiana to go to college with me. They were looking for McRib sandwiches from the first day they arrived. I had never heard of them. We had to go to every McDonald’s from New Orleans to Lafayette until we found some. Then they ordered 12 sandwiches and they ate 11, I ate one. That is the only one I ever ate. It tasted like mystery meat that was pressed into the shape after being regugated by some animal. I am used to good cooking with a Cajun unbringing. Alligator tastes much better than McRibs. Just about anything tastes better than McRibs. When McDonalds bring this back their stock will fall.

I’m a big fan of fast food. I’ll never touch another one of those abortions.

What McDonalds does to our hearts with the McRib, is cruel and unusual punishment. It can’t be too unhealthy because many of us force as many of those sandwiches down our throats as we can and there have been little to no casualties.
