Yes, no one knows really what it is and jokes will be made, but I look forward to it as much as I look forward to the changing of the leaves into golden hues, the smell of autumn and the crisp edge in the air this time of year.
Something about that sauce, the pickle, the sloppy bun that falls apart in your hand as you eat it.

(1,965 posts)I consider myself a BBQ aficionado, and this is merely reflecting my own tastes. I've left BBQ a 100 times better than a McRib in the toilet. And yes, I have tried it. Once.

(16,296 posts)Certainly do not want anyone eating in the toilet - I've had BBQ from KC to Austin to Atlanta to St. Louie and McRib is NOT BBQ - it is some pork (?) smeared with a sauce, unpretentious and humble and damn good. But then again I don't eat in a toilet so I suppose I am missing that gustatory patina when I enjoy it..

(1,965 posts)Prefaced my comment by saying so. I was merely trying to give you a good natured ribbing... Nudge, nudge, wink. Get it McRib... Ribbing.
I'm sure there are foods I love that you'd find disgusting.
Again, sorry if I caused any discomfort.
