McRibs at McDonalds

I’m sure everyone has heard that the McRib Burger is now back at participating McDonald restaurants. Also, I’m sure everyone has heard someone say “My friend said this was good.. but I haven’t tried it.” So for those who haven’t tried the McRib burger, this post is for you!

From all the advertisements on the radio, I was pretty curious as to what how a McRib burger tastes like. So the curious me went to adventure out into the unknown… and boy was I in for a surprise. McDonalds often have TV, bus, billboards, and endless other advertisements that often capture the burger in perfect form. However, the actual burger was far from the advertisement….

Here is a picture of a delicious looking McRib burger from the internet:

Here is a picture of what I have purchased from the local McDonald store:

From the looks of it, I was deeply disappointed. One pickle, diced onions and a rib with barely enough sauce on it. But I still ate it for the sake of not wasting food.
The verdict:
It isn’t as bad as it looks. It was acceptable.
Bottom line:
You have to give everything a try; otherwise you’ll never know what it is. However, after one time, having more is up to you.
Personally, I’ll resume my boycotting of McDonalds after this post.

  1. I love the McRib. It’s a lot more popular in the Southern US, though.

  3. I loved it as a kid. I had one the other day and it was disappointing. Like watching He-Man reruns.
