I'm surprised people care about the McRib, especially with all the talented smokers and other fooderati on this board.
This is my wife's favorite fast food from when she was a teenager and can't wait. As far as fast goes, it beats the same old burger and fries. I'm sure we'll be seeking them out when we go to town.

I thought the best news of 2020 was that we can get In 'n Out in the centennial state, now?
I very much prefer a double-double animal to a McRib. I think McD's still has the edge on french fries, but it's close.
I think I had a McRib sammich once, a couple of eons ago.....
I'm looking forward to a McRib. I don't think I've had one in close to 20 years.
In and out is not that good. I don't get the hype. Just a below average fast food burgerQuote:

As far as the McRib goes, I might just have to stop by McD's today on the way into work and grab a few for my team - more for the nostalgia than for the actual enjoyment of the sandwich. But, like my wife and I always say: We're Ginsue's, we gotta eat.
It's been a decade or so since I had a McRib. Agreed, that's It's a nostalgia thing.
Last time I had In-n-out, I grabbed the double-double animal style. I was on a road trip, and was VERY happy that there was a Bucee-s nearby, as they have the cleanest shitters around. That burger did not agree with me at all.
I have never eaten one.
McDonalds?? I get better food out of the Yak and Yeti garbage can.Quote:

I will need to leave another 20 minutes earlier than normal to take a alternate route to and from work.
When things calm down I will stop in for a Double Double and strawberry shake.
I just want a McDLT.
Actually I want McDonalds to bring back ready to eat food and heat lamps. I'm tired of waiting 5 minutes in the drive through for a double cheeseburger or something, only to bite into it and it's lukewarm at best.
It was not great, but I needed to have it. 3/10. Til next time.
F**k it. You guys wake me up when they open a Whataburger around here.
One of the many perks to living here...Quote:

What I won't do is make a special trip to In N Out. Someone said it earlier in the thread, but near as I can figure the only people that like that place are California transplants. It's not good...
I haven't been to a Culvers, but will stop in next time I pass one to give it a try. There are 3 in my area.
A McRib.Quote:

McDonald is so expensive that I can go to a casual restaurant for that price.
Now if they have a awesome coupons, I will try mcrib.
Btw as someone said before I think mcdlt would be a good comeback. I will eat that just for the nice 80s memory.

Now Mrs bo favorite dinner joint.
I really need to try yak and yeti when buffet thing reopens.
People to me to try lunch buffet first to see what I like first.
I always get the chicken tikka masala. Gotta be careful though, when they say "hot" it ain't taco bell hotQuote:

I tried Drifter's once. Was not impressed.
Have had Five Guys several times. Still not impressed by the burgers. The fries and the peanuts are great although I'd still say McD's fries are better.
Haven't had In-n-Out but if Drifter's is really supposed to be inspired by them, I expect the only thing impressive will be that there were easily 60-70 cars in line for the drive-through at 2340 on Saturday night. The line went around the block and over to Voyager Parkway. At midnight.
Whataburger at Houston airport and in San Antonio was much more satisfying that Drifter's or Five Guys IMO.
My favorite burgers in Colorado Springs are at Bingo Burger downtown or Bad Daddy's Burger Bar in Briargate.
New marketing idea for McD's:Quote:

In reality, I hit McD's or a similar joint maybe once a month and it is like eating meat candy, but within an hour I better be near a restroom.
Thanks for recommendation.Quote:

Any other recommendation on menu from anyone would be great. thanks.
I go to much less restrooms, because of no fast food. Biggest factor is that I drink less soda. Sadly, less exercise+less/no fastfood got me to gain some net weight (from being fat as is already). [Rant2]Quote:

I doubt it would sell much after a few months of being on the menu permanently.
In and out is a good burger, but it?s not wait in a long ass line good. People are idiots.
I’ve never had anything from In and Out...Quote:

I have had one meal from Whataburger, one from Drifters and found both to be good. Not oh my gosh good, but good.
I don't do McD unless I am on a road trip. The Mc' Rib was also in the 'it's ok' group. I rather have the egg McMuffin with sausage.
The only fries I like are from Chick fil-a, tater tots from Sonic are fine.
For me a simple fried burger at home on a toasted bagel + real cheese works best. Fresh tomato if I have it.
The green line grill for what it is worth had the better onion burger over all the common burger joints in town(Col Spgs).
I liked these when they were on the $0.99 menu. They got so popular they started raising the price every time it came back. Asking damn near $5 for one of these leftover ground up meat shaped thingies is impressive. I commend McDonald's for single-handedly keeping capitalism alive in these trying times.
I like a bit of the old in & out...
Not that impressed by the burger chain though.
I tried one yesterday. The sauce is blander than I remember. I’ll skip them from now on. Better choices from local shops.
Had them here in the 70's. Not sure why they closed.Quote:
