Sandwich Monday: The McRib

Like a shooting star, the McRib appears bright and shining, but only for an instant, and if you blink, you miss it. The seasonal sandwich just showed up on our McDonald's menu—and will be at every McDonald's nationwide next month. We just went to get some, a move which seemed to shock the people behind the counter.

Mike: So, the McRib is seasonal. The Shamrock Shake goes with St.Patrick's Day—why is the McRib out now?

Ian: Halloween. It's non-food wearing a food costume.

Eva: Or because it's the living dead.
