A few facts about the most famous boneless rib sandwich in the world:

a) it's mighty delicious

b) the "ribs" are only molded onto the top of the slab

c) if you wash off the bbq sauce, it looks like a wet scab.

d) if you slice it in half the long way, it looks like nothing you've ever imagined.

I give you - McRib, deconstrucuted

Ever read Fast Food Nation? It's amazing how much chemical research goes into making something like that. There's a reason Mickey D's fries taste so good and that reason is chaemical engineering.

BTW...that's no more disgusting than a Tofurkey

I am both disgusted and enhungered.

FWIW, my dad once bit a bone in a McRib sammich...

It looks like some kind of pastry in the first picture and a maggot breeding ground in the second.

The first picture reminds me of chicharron, one of the tastiest food ever created.

How they are made (note for the squeamish--there is a dead pig involved)

More like deep fried tofu.

Some things are not meant to be seen, and the McRib is definitely one of them.

If you aren't going to law school on the bit-a-bone-in-a-McRib scholarship, somebody f'd up.

They're just like pork rinds, that's all.

 

[AIE]

That's what I thought

More like deep fried tofu.

The first thing that popped into my head was 'age dashi tofu'.

That was a finger.

The McRib will be returning nationwide on November 2nd this year.

Never tried one but I'm sure it's the most delicious chemical man could possibly engineer.
