Frozen McRib Patty

2 Replies

A few articles are springing up as a result of a recently posted image of what appears to be the McRib patty coming out storage from a freezer. Most of the stories are playing off how “bad” the patty looks in this state. Having been to various grocery outlets that sell frozen food, I don’t see the big deal. It isn’t like the patty has a different shape, or that it has freezer burn. It appears that a majority of commenters on these stories have a similar take as I do.

Here are a few articles that can provide a little more information on the issue and include the photo mentioned:

So what do you think?

Still Time to Win McRib Locator Pens!

We earlier went into the details of our pen giveaway for this McRib Season. We have been getting a lot of confirmations even after the respective state has been confirmed. To reward these reports, we are going to run another McRib Pen Giveaway! We are going to have a top reporters reward where the top 5 reporters will receive McRib Pens. This will be a point based system, and here are the scoring rules.

1) We have decided that we will give 5 points to each sighting added to the McRib Locator that also has a photo confirmation sent in (photos@mcriblocator.com) for the sighting reported. You must do both in order to score the points.

2) In order for your points to accumulate, you will need to report your sightings with the same email address each time. This is the only unique identification that we have today for each sighting. We do not and will not share the email addresses.

3) Scores will be available at http://mcriblocator.com/topreporters.php

4) Confirmations from August 1, 2013 through midnight Jan 1 (when the balls drops it is all over) will be included.

More details on the McRib returning to Canada

As the McRib finally returns to Canada, the Canadian McDonalds website is now featuring material on the release. Unlike the search and find approach used on our website, McDonalds Canada offers a timeline for the McRibs availability, expected for a single glorious month.

They also are featuring music and a chance to win swag, alike a promotion ran in the United States many years ago.

Canadians are in for a flavorful fall, even if for only a month.
