When the man was asleep, he removed one of the man's ribs and closed up the flesh where it had been. Then the LORD God formed the rib that he had taken from the man into a woman and brought her to the man.

It was all downhill from there.

True story. I know some high-end chefs who consider McDonald’s their guilty pleasure. I was at a really good sushi restaurant that I frequent when one of the chefs came in with a big McDonald’s sack. The sushi chefs took turns going into the back, and I could see them chowing down on Big Macs.

Once I was invited to a blingy dinner at an expensive Hollywood restaurant. They bought out dish after dish, but each dish had a little dollop of something in the middle with some sauce and a piece of shrubbery with some fancy name like roast duck smothered in fois gras pate drizzled in aged Yak piss. The dinner took three and a half hours. As soon as I left, I went through the McDonald’s drive thru for a Big Mac and fries... I was hungrier when I left the restaurant than when I got there.

Being born and raised in one of the best BBQ cities on Planet Earth (KC), I can say, unequivocally, that the McRib SUCKS.

No different than a steak or brisket guy eating a hamburger.

I don't understand the hate for it.

It's made like breakfast sausage. You could take a Jimmy Dean's package of sausage and make a McRib yourself.

Being Married to a woman that attended hamburger university I can vaguely recall eating one of the first mcribs when they were introduced here. Haven’t had one since...35-40 yrs ago IIRC

Think I had one or two the first time they came out a hundred years ago. Nothing wrong with a fresh Big Mac or Royale with cheese once in a while. Wendy’s burgers are better. As far as fast food, Panda Express is the winner hands down.

Wait. Best fast food may be a tie between Panda and Popeyes.

There's nothing "fresh" about a big mac since their burgers are pre-made and frozen.

There's a Burger place in town here that makes their burgers fresh daily and made to order. The once or twice a year I go for a burger and fries that's where I go.

I tried it once... it was disgusting... never again.

Favorite fast food is Wendy's Asiago Chicken Club and then Popeyes chicken.

They don't make each patty individually. They make them in batches daily. When they run out they close the store.

But they don't grill it until you order. Doesn't take much longer than any other fast food restaurant and 100% better.

As good as home-made, really.

Also they have just about the best bacon I've ever had.
