The McRib Is Returning To McDonalds.
Let that soak in for a second - in all it's BBQ sauce glory.
It's been one year since McDonald's had its big "Farewell Tour" for the McRib. And in related news: The McRib will be back at McDonald's next month. (???)
If you didn't see this coming, you only have yourself to blame. Because they've done it before.
The McRib also had "Farewell Tours" in 2005 and 2006, and then they brought it back in 2007 anyway.
Because of that, McRib aficionados were skeptical about last year's marketing stunt. And it turns out they were right to be. McDonald's says it was just a farewell to it being available "nationwide."
In other words, a lot of locations will have it again this year, maybe even most of them. It just won't be available at ALL locations anytime soon.
Someone leaked the news last week. McDonald's denied it at first, but then confirmed it over the weekend. It'll be back in participating markets next month for a limited time. Here's a bit of that post:
Update from McDonald's: "It turns out not everyone was ready to say goodbye to the McRib after last year’s Farewell Tour. While it won’t be available nationwide, some lucky fans may find their favorite elusive saucy sandwich at their local McDonald’s restaurants this November."
Woah! Last fall the McRib went on a 'Farewell Tour,' but it's coming back this November!
It's always fun to see the response from the country when the McRib comes back - remember this from a couple of years ago?
So will we see the McRib here in #Detroit? One would hope so (if the McDonald's gods are smiling down upon SE Michigan). But just to make sure - here's the McRib Locator...which reports sightings of the McRib worldwide. No really.
