You never noticed the bones growing up? I'd pull them out and eat them on their own.

My parents were cheap in the 90s. We weren't allowed to buy any 20oz soda that was more than $1.09 after tax.

I was probably 10 or so the last time I ate one of these...


Still go get one anytime I know IT'S BACK!!!

They don't seem to advertise it as much these days though, so I've probably done that like 2 or 3 times as an adult.
I tried a McRib for the first time when they came back in the past year. I regret it.

Powdered candy in a paper tube. Don't remember what it was called.

It's just that for around the same price, you can hit up your local bbq joint for a pork sammich that's way better.

Same issue with Taco Bell. No reason to go there since they discontinued the mexican pizza.

yoooooo Cima red!! Like big red's sluddy cousin. at the local stop n rob you could get 2 deep fried burritos and a 20 oz Cima red for like a buck fitty.

Also pro tip for the patio frozen burrito types: air fryer. Obviously they won't come out orange but they crisp up nice. Making some for breakfast right now.

It's a matter of convenience. If the food is good enough, there are times when eating at fast food joints is preferable.

A guy I worked with back in HS made a "Save Surge" movie

Josta can be seen in the new Loki series. I wonder if they are going to bring it back for a limited run

I had the distinct impression that they don't actually make new McRibs when they come back every few years, but rather just thaw out a batch of the originals that were manufactured sometime in the 1970's.

Milk. When I was growing up through being a teenager and early 20s I was a YUUUUGE milk drinker.

Now I hardly touch it ever
