A delightful review of the McDonalds McRib):

I had a McRib yesterday, which for the uninitiated is a sandwich from McDonald’s that was introduced in 1981 and discontinued in 1985 due to poor sales. This should have been the end of the McRib story, but some people — people who live among us!! — desperately wanted the sandwich to return, and McDonald’s then began rolling it out semi-annually in certain markets as a limited time menu item to satiate the most deranged people alive.
