McRib sneaks into Northeast US

As we have been reporting, the northeast US has been void of McRibs this get this season. While we had heard some rumblings that they may yet see it return, we didn’t hold our breath as McRib Patty production has already ended.

Turns out these rumors were true as we just received a McRib confirmation in western New Jersey. The fan indicated that this location did NOT have the McRib earlier this season, and the McRib they did receive was served in a McNugget container.

Perhaps we will see a second return of the McRib this year in more parts of the northeast. If you find one please add it on our map and send us an email with a confirmation photo of your receipt. We are still giving out window clings as supplies last, so act now!

Another look at production of the McRib

You likely already watched the English version of McDonalds feature on how the McRib is made. McDonalds has also provided another visit into the Lopez Foods plant in a Spanish oriented video. A few more shots of the production line that were not in the original.

McRib set to return to the UK in December

After a limited release in the UK earlier this year, the McRib is coming back in full force at the end of December.

Notice that the McRib will be amiable for about a month, sticking around until February. This is welcome news for the UK, as they have been asking for the return of the McRib for years! I suspect a lot of fans across the pond will be breaking in their New Year with some saucy love!
