Oh they still look like that. In fact if you buy bbq rib sandwich patties at the grocery store they look like that.
I just had a McRib for the first time and if McDonalds wasn't 20 miles away I'd eat on almost every day until they are gone.
They are truly...

My husband's in Pittsburgh for business and he's already had two McRib sandwiches. And told me how good it is.
And I'm pissed because I know McD's in my neck of Jersey won't have it.

I can honestly say I've never eaten a McRib. After all the hullabulloo in this thread I guess I'll have to try one now.

I think I had my last McRib ever the other day. It was somewhat tasty but gave me silly burps and farts.
I think it did last time too but they trick me by leaving so much time in between releases that I think I want one again. I have better things to spend my calories on. I'm leaving this note for my future self to hopefully locate this post the next time they are released.

Never understood the craze for these. Just put BBQ sauce on a burger...
