Nothing satisfies like a McRib.

Here is the short but fascinatng history of this pork-based sandwich...

April 1990 - The McRib is introduced for a limited time. I eat many.

June 1991 - The McRib comes back for 30 days in a cross promotion for 'Batman Returns'. The terrible 'Honey Mustard McRib' is also available;nauseates millions. I eat one Honey Mustard, then return to te classic. i eat many.

May 1994 - The McRib returns, in a crosspromotion with the 'Flintstones' live action movie. McDonalds restaurants are temporarily called 'Roc Donalds'. I eat many.

May 1998 - The McRib comes out again, in conjunction with the opening of Disney's 'Animal Kingdom'. I eat many.

March 2001 - The McRib JR. is introduced for McDonald's new 'Taste menu'. Out for 90 days, this is a weak subsititute, on a regular hamburger bun and shaped starngely. Bad idea. I eat many, regardless.

November 27, 2002. McRib is back in it's original glory. I have so far eaten two. I will keep you up to date as to how many i consume before this promotion is over. Anyone have a guess as to how many McRibs I eat until it is?
