To be fair the McRib was shit from the beginning. I still crave one every few years.

It's available year round in Germany. For whatever reason.

For whatever reason, I am disappointed in my German friends. Don't know anything about German food, but I expected better of you. I am disappoint.

Meh, at least we don't fall into a feeding frenzy when they reappear seldomly.

I've never had one, but I assume it tastes like the 90's elementary school "rib" sandwich from the cafeteria. Maybe worse.

I had one, or more accurately one bite. The best way to describe it is boiled meat coated in a sugar sauce. Fucking disgusting.

I can't compare, I never had yours. It's minced pork, a very strange BBQ sauce it's been heated in, some pickles and raw onions. The sauce is mainly acidic/sweet IIRC and the onions only provide texture. It's very strange, but somehow it scratches an itch. I haven't had one in years, but maybe I'll get one later and update the description.

That description is pretty accurate, you're just missing the weird melty texture of the not-quite-meat.

Yeah. If only I could explain why I enjoy it sometimes.

Yeah but the animal they originally made it from went extinct.
