" Made up of pork tripe, heart, and scalded stomach, the piece of meat served on the sandwich is processed down with water and sugar and then formed into the shape of ribs to give it a special appeal, when it’s not actually ribs at all." |

Im honestly amazed at what people will consume. That this passes as 'food' says a lot about the consumer base.

Rib shaped "meat".....if McDonald's gets you to spend your money for that shit it is purely your own fault.
|

Nothing wrong with offal. Scrapple, for instance, is a delicious treat.
The "McRib" gives offal a bad name, which is really saying something. |
|
McRib threads always turn into poop thread......wait for it.... |
|
I saw the sign in front of the local McD. For a guy that grew up eating head cheese, scrapple, tripe, and potted meat, the McRib is a welcome reminder of my childhood.

Nearly everybody is sneaking scrap meat into everyday products.
Read the fine print, even turkey & chicken parts used in the pepperoni-sausage on "premium" frozen pizzas. Looks like Hillshire Farm sausage stooped to that garbage too. Meat glue & pink slime, the new american diet. |

Every year for as long as the McRib has been out, someone writes an article explaining that it's not really ribs.
People are still shocked and outraged over this. Myself? I am no longer shocked and outraged that #1 anyone needs this explained to begin with and #2 this is news that is literally as old as I am, and is older than most people reading it. Then again, anyone who is so fucking stupid that they would think McRib is *actual* rib probably does indeed need this to be explained to them year after year after year. |

I'm scared to ask this...
But all I ever eat from McDonalds is the fillet-o-fish...Is it actually fish or am I eating soylent green or some shit? |
|
Never had it, never will. Unless I'm starving to death and that is the only food left on the earth.

Isn't tripe already stomach?
At one time the entire animal was used |
|
The yellow journalists got it wrong. It is mostly pork shoulder and pork trimmings which includes outer rib meat. Pork trimmings can include tripe, heart etc.
But pork heart is like any other heart muscle and very dark, it doesn't turn to a light color when cooked so it would make an off-color in the finished product. Tripe, especially pork tripe, would also cause off-flavor. Anyone who has smelled the stench of menudo (the Spanish soup made with tripe) can attest to this foul odor. |

LOL....what's funny is people that say that it's disgusting - they're probably eating something as they type made with some sort of disgusting ingredient. Hell, jello has boiled and rendered pig skin.

So they are going on the assumption someone thought it was actually ribs?

Anyone drink hot chocolate? Muahahahah!! guess whats in that cocoa powder?? Look it up. all kinds of bug and insect parts. Gonna stop drinking it now? |

Try Mexican, and im not sure where you buy your menudo but its not supposed to smell bad. Had that happen to me once at a hole in the wall, probably because the cooks failed to wash it well. |

Commercial fisherman invariably end up with a huge by-catch of non-target fish, such as gar, carp, buffalo, etc and they end up processed as 'fish sandwich' material. |

"As long as hunters use the whole animal, I'm OK with that, they shouldn't waste anything."
"What do you mean there is scrap meat in my McD's meat patties, no one wants to eat the whole animal!" In the end, its meat, the only difference between 'good' meat and 'bad' meat is the amount of seasoning required. |

It's just smaller and less easy to process parts of the animal. There's absolutely nothing "bad" about it. Every part of every animal is used. That's a good thing. |

If your answers are "yes" and "no" then don't worry about it. ::shrug:: Anyone who is worried is certainly free to raise/grow/kill their own food. That way you will KNOW what it is. Of course, damned few people have a clue how to feed themselves these days. |

I can count the number of McRib sandwiches I've consumed on a single hand. It's been over 15 years since I've had one as well.

Listen. If you don't like what gets put into processed food, good. It really is nasty stuff. But God dammit, I don't care. I like the McRib. You could tell me it was made out of horse shit and potato bugs, and if it tastes good, I'd still eat it.
Fucking let yourself ENJOY something and quit worrying about what it's made out of. If you thought it was made out of ribs, you really were too stupid anyway. |

My only gripe is the fact that they add sugar to it (personal gripe - not really a big deal). Am I the only one here who actually eats offal? |

I love a can of Juanita's now and then. Special bonus, it doesn't sell well so often they'll put a bunch on sale for 1/4 the price. YUM!

Based on all the posts here, you would think that Arf.com is entirely made up of vegetarians and health food fanatics. McRib is as delicious as hot dogs. McRib eaters are man enough to eat the entire animal. I ate two McRibs today and consider myself the urban Bear Grylls.

Supposedly someone sells you an AR15 telling you its Colt, it shoots good, it's precise, its reliable, it looks and feels like a Colt. But later you find out it is in fact a Norinco. But hey, just enjoy it. |
