The McRib Is Coming Back!
That's right! The sandwich I didn't care about in the '80s is coming back so I can once again neglect it in the year 2010.
It's weird to say that: The McRib is returning for 2010. It's like expecting that I'll be able to drink a Crystal Pepsi in 2021. Or rent a DVD from a Blockbuster video in 2039.
But sure enough, on November 2nd, the legendary sandwich will return for the first time in 16 years. Maybe this is the era the processed pork monstrosity was meant for? It always had an air of possibly being from… "the future."
[ED. NOTE: To clarify, the McRib is coming back nationwide for the first time in 16 years. I don't doubt they never took it off the menu in many of our readers' backwoods towns where it is a staple of the local diet and used as a sacrament in bizarre religious ceremonies.]
