0:07
just a few days away McDonald's Mickey D
0:12
has brought back they said they wouldn't
0:15
but they have brought back the one and
0:17
only MC rib and I can tell you it's been
0:20
probably a couple years since I have
0:22
consumed one consumed one and today is
0:26
going to be one of those days where I
0:28
Nestle the flavor of a fast food
0:32
whatever the heck you want to call it
0:33
version of a rib sandwich from
0:37
McDonald's into my face I'm inviting you
0:40
to join me I got to find one first
0:42
though I was looking on the McDonald's
0:44
app there's not a whole heck of a lot of
0:47
the franchise that carries the mrip so I
0:50
got to go on a quest join me shall you
0:54
there's a squirrel rustling around over
0:55
there in the foliage barely kind of see
0:57
him oh he's now popped on the other side
1:00
so I'm just sitting here on Market
1:02
Street going to
1:03
check check online and see possibly if
1:06
the celebration one we'll have one if
1:09
not I might have to go over to to Four
1:11
Corners or maybe some of the other areas
1:14
to find them hopefully not all the way
1:16
to Davenport but you never
1:18
know also I hurt my ankle yesterday
1:22
think I twisted my ankle or something my
1:23
foot is like kind of hurting a little
1:26
bit so it's kind of a good thing I'm not
1:28
going to be walking a whole crap ton
1:31
today I'm just going to be eating crap
1:33
not walking it now that Market Street is
1:36
all blocked off whenever someone has to
1:37
go to the post office they all park over
1:39
there they kind of go to this little
1:40
horseshoe area
1:43
here where the fountain and the park is
1:46
I'm excited about seeing some snope out
1:48
here when that when that happens it's
1:49
not happening yet it's still going to be
1:51
series of days before that happens but
1:54
yeah a fast food time been asked a few
1:57
times where the clock is here in town
1:59
now so if you just look for the bank the
2:02
Bank of America and look for this
2:04
structure all you have to do is go that
2:07
direction and then turn around and they
2:10
are lurking in the shadows and you can
2:12
say see the day is kind of sort of
2:14
getting away from me I've just been
2:16
lounging around I
2:17
was enjoying the homestead relaxing
2:21
staying off the foot I don't think it's
2:23
anything major I don't think I broke it
2:25
or sprained it I think I just kind of
2:28
Twisted it so so I'm able to walk I just
2:31
got to going to be got to tread lightly
2:33
all right I decided to try the one here
2:35
just to see if they do have them then
2:38
I'll go ahead and get one here if they
2:39
don't I'll go somewhere else and I'll
2:41
check the app all right it looks as if
2:44
they are going to have it I am not going
2:45
to get a Dr Pepper to go with it I'm
2:47
just going to get a water but they do
2:49
have the MCB here and I did check the
2:51
McDonald's app and it showed that there
2:53
were a few around central Florida that
2:55
did not have them but evidently it said
2:57
the celebration one doesn't but in fact
3:01
it
3:08
does it's good to
3:08
know I think I might get two I don't eat
3:11
these often so I might as well might as
3:13
well go for the gusta
3:15
right with the order do you have the
3:19
MCB yes okay can I get two MC ribs and a
3:23
large fry okay and three bottles of
3:27
water all right anything else no that's
3:30
it all right go forward thank
3:37
you 2309 they have two drive-thru lines
3:37
here the one I just went through right
3:39
over there and this
3:42
one and they merge into one the golden
3:45
them golden arches are beckoning that
3:47
was relatively easy you already see the
3:49
grease starting to formulate there on
3:51
the bag see the sun kind of starting to
3:54
set over there it'll be setting soon
3:56
heading over to Island village a new
3:58
area technically in celebration but it's
4:01
also kind of on the outskirts I like
4:03
that you drive underneath this classic
4:05
kind of
4:06
roadside even though it's new bridge
4:08
that they built that kind of reminds me
4:10
of the small town of Americana and when
4:12
I was driving out of the parking lot the
4:13
bag slid off into the floor and like
4:16
half of the fries half the large fries
4:19
kind of fell off so I got about half the
4:20
fries now which is probably good cuz I
4:22
did get two MC ribs but I got the two I
4:24
was sipping on the one the third Dan so
4:26
it's in the car so I got two two danis
4:28
there I really like like this area over
4:31
here this is a new section in fact
4:32
they're doing a lot of construction you
4:34
can probably even hear it over across
4:36
this particular Lake you can see that
4:39
even it's amazing how early the sun sets
4:42
now that they have the the time change a
4:45
couple weeks ago but soon all these
4:46
stores a lot of these condos and houses
4:49
here are all starting to fill up people
4:52
moving in and So eventually these stores
4:56
you see over here are all going to be
4:57
open and there's a nice little seat
4:59
right here so so probably just grab a
5:00
seat right here and do a little research
5:02
while I'm while I'm eating share some
5:04
facts about the MC rib and feed my belly
5:08
and have something I haven't had
5:09
probably in a couple years with my half
5:11
large fry the other half spilled down
5:13
into the into the floor so I got to
5:15
clean those out of the bottom of my car
5:17
I got the one MC rib here and I got the
5:20
other MC rib here now last year
5:23
McDonald's was kind of heavily promoting
5:25
something called a farewell tour that
5:27
they were going to say farewell to the
5:28
mbon and they weren't going to bring it
5:30
back but like a lot of farewell tours I
5:32
mean how many times is kiss that they're
5:33
not going to tour anymore well I'm just
5:35
using that as an example course a lot of
5:37
rock bands so I guess you could almost
5:39
classify this as rock band status they
5:42
say they're not coming back and then
5:44
they do I think aie said he's not going
5:45
to tour anymore I think the last tour no
5:47
more tours or something they're calling
5:49
it see if that happens okay I had to
5:51
shift back just a little bit the sun was
5:52
really abrasive there so I got the stuff
5:54
here behind this
5:56
pole so this started in 198
6:00
81 the mcri did and went till about 85
6:03
sold okay it was it became on the menu I
6:05
think before that it was in test markets
6:08
so it's an early 80s fast food so
6:11
McDonald's really kind of for me I
6:13
started to know about McDonald's in the
6:15
early 8s with all the promotion stuff
6:17
you know I was born in 74 so at 81 I
6:19
would have been 7 7 years
6:22
old so I was just hitting those
6:24
formidable years of knowing about pop
6:27
culture and things like that or at least
6:29
kind of started having inundating your
6:31
brain and then in 85 they pulled it and
6:34
then a few years later they brought it
6:36
back but on a a limited basis and now
6:40
currently this thing is a sloppy
6:42
disgusting mess granted I Al okay let me
6:46
paraphrase that it's not their fault
6:48
it's my fault for letting it slip off
6:50
the the top of the the
6:56
car but now it's kind of Genius that
6:56
they pull it off the menu which always
6:59
makes me think if a place has something
7:02
all year which I love the filet of fish
7:04
I know it's complete garbage but the
7:06
filet of fish is a go-to all
7:09
right so does it make more sense look at
7:17
this o I need to have the I need to have
7:17
the fries in here right
7:20
here let me try this man that is that is
7:23
a messy piece of
7:27
goodness the
7:30
MC rib it's back baby it's sloppy it's
7:36
back and there's some heavy rumors about
7:39
what the heck this is I can remember in
7:42
2003 no 200 and 11 I it was kind of
7:48
spewing all around that it was that this
7:50
is probably not true I'm sure it's
7:52
probably been fact checked that there
7:53
were parts of this that resembled and
7:57
possibly could have been a yoga mat and
7:59
you can kind of see it that if I don't
8:01
know if anyone's ever done yoga on that
8:03
but it would be a tasty
8:06
session trying to get a thumbnail here
8:09
obviously probably be easier if I just
8:11
photoshoop something but I keep it
8:13
basic there we
8:16
go limic rib it doesn't make more sense
8:19
to have something all year not build up
8:22
height or not have it bring it back sell
8:25
three times the amount in amount in a
8:28
short time and almost make more money
8:31
than you would make probably over a 3 or
8:33
4 month period by having it for a few
8:35
weeks things that make you
8:43
go
8:43
M that's not
8:49
bad now I don't know if it's the sauce
8:49
that makes it good or if it's the
8:51
delicious onions on there or it's the
8:53
one or two pickles with they cram on
8:59
top it here's what what's interesting
8:59
about
9:01
sandwiches it's not one particular item
9:03
on said sandwich that really tastes good
9:06
it's the the goulash of everything kind
9:09
of combined I wish I had a real chair
9:10
I'm kind of like teetering
9:13
here on this side there we
9:24
go also I probably should look up the
9:24
calorie account I'm going to hit up Wiki
9:27
sure for Wikipedia cuz you know you can
9:29
always trust the internet anything the
9:30
internet says is true even though I
9:32
believe certain sites like the one I
9:34
just mentioned I think anybody can go in
9:35
there and adjust
9:44
it all right this is tasty I'm glad they
9:44
brought this back honestly should have
9:47
brought some wet
9:48
naps have something I can wash cuz I'm
9:50
going to have some sticky hands after
9:51
eating all this this bbec sauce it's not
9:55
sweet baby rays barbecue sauce he means
9:58
but it is B sauce I don't even know if I
10:00
want to pull my phone out and research
10:01
some of this stuff because my hands are
10:04
so
10:13
messy the bread is pretty good it has
10:13
the little what do you call those sesame
10:15
seeds with the little seeds that's on
10:17
there kind of reminds
10:18
me I mean Philly Captain is going to
10:21
probably come after me for saying this
10:22
but it almost reminds me of like a
10:24
Philly cheese steak piece of bread I
10:28
mean granted isn't but that's my first
10:30
impression of like the softness of
10:32
it Florida version of a a barbecue fast
10:37
food crappy
10:46
Billy I don't know if you caught that
10:46
but I just made a yummy
10:48
sound like Young Frankenstein
10:51
said you just made a yummy
10:53
sound it's the whole conglomeration it's
10:56
not one particular thing I I love
10:59
pickles so I know a lot of people don't
11:00
like pickles or onions I can't imagine
11:02
what this would be for your taste buds
11:03
if you didn't have the pickles or onions
11:04
on here I don't even know if I would get
11:06
it someone said hey I got you a McRib
11:08
without the pickles and onions I don't
11:10
think it would have the same goodness
11:12
all right let's just take a quick little
11:13
Gander here and just kind of paraphrase
11:15
so again 81 before that it was in a test
11:17
Market but it came out in 81 there's a
11:21
lot of nonsense here which who who even
11:23
knows how to like comprehend what even
11:24
that even means I mean you can but
11:26
that's not really what's important when
11:28
you're eating fast food is really no
11:29
reason to try to justify you just got to
11:31
kind of go all in ingredients are a pork
11:34
patty Homestyle roll barbecue sauce
11:36
pickle slices and slivered onions
11:39
interesting slivered onion por sales in
11:42
' 85 started in ' 81 it was reintroduced
11:45
in
11:46
'89 and staying on the menu in 2005 and
11:49
then 2006 a year later they decided just
11:51
to make it very shortlived it is a 5 1/2
11:59
roll
11:59
okay this is interesting the same guy
12:01
that had invented the chicken nugget in
12:03
79 2 years
12:04
later did the McRib McNuggets were so R
12:08
you know it does kind of have a McNugget
12:10
taste to it McNuggets really are not
12:12
good but there's something about them
12:14
that are delicious I just like I don't
12:16
know what it is I eat a McNugget and I'm
12:18
like why am I eating these and that's
12:19
kind of the same feeling I have when I'm
12:22
eating a MC rib I've already finished
12:24
one and I'm going to go into the other
12:26
one at some point as well I've been kind
12:28
of
12:29
tapping those fries a little bit too not
12:32
immediately successful you don't say cuz
12:35
it stopped seals were mediocre removed
12:37
in 85 determined that pork was not eaten
12:40
frequently in the
12:42
US okay MCB tied into the theatrical
12:47
release of The Flintstones and then back
12:49
in ' 05 a press release of MCB would
12:51
permanently removed as the MC rib
12:54
farewell tour what the heck it's been on
12:56
a farewell tour since ' 05 it's
12:59
literally 18 years it could p a pack of
13:03
cigarettes you know and I probably by
13:05
the looks of it I would think this right
13:07
here might have smoked a carton or
13:12
two look at this hey look at this gooey
13:15
goodness look at this little onion Right
13:17
Here Wanting to be free don't don't eat
13:19
me wear are my holidays and Hell hhn
13:23
shirt this is the holidays and the way
13:26
my my stomach is going to feel and my
13:28
bowels are going to feel after eating
13:30
these is going to be like H double
13:33
hockey
13:39
sticks the bowels of
13:39
Hades now I know I go off the rails with
13:43
my diet sometimes I do good sometimes I
13:45
do
13:47
bad I was looking back at pictures of
13:49
myself from this time last year November
13:53
December last
13:54
year I was really really heavy I'm still
13:57
really heavy gained a lot of weight back
13:58
since the thin by Dragon Con I need
14:01
something else to get me motivated which
14:03
will be happening soon
14:09
but es and flows only being human kind
14:11
sucks giving in
14:17
Temptation I'm doing all
14:17
right didn't mean to go off in that
14:20
tangent though but out of everything
14:22
I've
14:23
said I do not drink soda anymore I
14:25
haven't drank soda in like 5 months with
14:28
the exception of like a club cool up cot
14:30
like a little sample cup or a fat-free
14:33
minute made or a sugar-free minute made
14:35
from the Coca-Cola freestyles and the
14:37
DVC Lounge things like that I don't
14:39
drink soda anymore which kind of makes
14:41
me sad because this would go really good
14:44
with the McDonald's Coca-Cola the best
14:46
Coca-Cola on the
14:52
planet messy
14:52
messy
14:58
messy think my foot's feeling a little
14:58
bit better and my foot has a freaking
15:00
onion on it and a big chunk of this
15:03
barbecue sauce look at this I'm going to
15:05
like reach down take this off my shoe
15:08
put that back back in the
15:10
bag I'm just going to put that right
15:19
there this is a
15:19
mutated frivolously tasty
15:23
treat I don't know how else to describe
15:25
it does anything else even exist like
15:27
this on the freaking Planet what what
15:31
spaceship did this come out of what
15:32
alien life form nestled this thing up in
15:35
its kitchen I mean I know it was the guy
15:37
that created the McNugget but
15:40
yeah if you can believe the what's on
15:42
the
15:44
online man I can't I don't feel like I
15:46
can't do a proper review unless I was to
15:48
go there and get it without dropping the
15:50
bag good news is I've shuffled up the
15:53
flavors I just dripped it on there I've
15:55
shuffled up the flavors so maybe it's
15:57
extra good all right going in and it's
15:59
good to have this using it as like a a
16:23
mcreb
16:23
truthfully it's not that
16:29
bad
16:29
it's the sauce it's the sauce the onions
16:31
and the
16:36
pickles maybe one of the messiest things
16:36
I've eaten in a long time this thing is
16:40
messy now when you go get coffee you can
16:42
say I want it half the cream or half the
16:45
sugar could you get half of the BBQ
16:48
sauce I feel like this would be just as
16:50
good if it wasn't as messy with half the
16:53
BBQ sauce and you can double up on the
16:55
onions double up on the
16:57
pickles
17:04
I thought about going out and doing a
17:04
bunch of walking I got a couple ideas
17:06
for some videos coming up here in the
17:08
next few days and I was going to go out
17:10
and walk an immense amount of steps
17:12
covering some ground but I'm going to
17:14
hold off on
17:15
that so instead I think it's probably
17:18
2,000 calories th000 calories I got to
17:21
look that up trust the internet again if
17:24
this was these were 2,000 calories each
17:26
I'm glad this is my only meal of the day
17:29
for in the fries add in that's like what
17:31
18,000
17:37
calories I can usually go all day
17:37
without eating I drink coffee in the
17:39
morning I stay so busy doing other
17:41
things filming usually but this
17:42
episode's a little bit later in the day
17:45
and then usually when I wind down in the
17:47
evening is when I get
17:48
hungry if I wasn't eating
17:51
this I would do really
17:54
good I feel like I've had a cheap M no I
17:57
feel like I've had a cheap
18:00
since Hawaii I haven't been doing great
18:02
I haven't been doing bad but I haven't
18:04
been doing great I'm going to give an
18:06
unpopular opinion which I know people
18:07
are going to come after me for but I am
18:10
not a huge barbecue guy I don't crave
18:13
barbecue all the time I do like Buy's
18:15
brisket sandwiches amazing dare I say
18:18
one of the best BR brisket sandwiches
18:20
I've ever had there's a piece of heavy
18:22
machinery driving over there to work on
18:24
that car on that
18:26
house but as far as to a BBC place I
18:29
probably only eat barbecue unless I'm
18:31
with a friend who wants to get barbecue
18:33
or friends that want to get a little uh
18:36
old school barbecue action I really
18:38
would not go there on my own accord
18:39
except for maybe once a year the
18:42
exception of Buy's brisket I could eat
18:44
these more often than going to a legit
18:47
barbecue place I know sounds wild maybe
18:51
it's just the convenience of it look how
18:53
freaking disgustingly messy this
18:55
is what the heck is going on with this
18:59
they don't show you this in the
19:00
commercial they don't show you the after
19:02
of you picking up the burger they don't
19:04
show the CLE the throwing away of the
19:08
cardboard
19:22
here I'm glad I got two one would not
19:22
have been
19:29
enough one would definitely not have
19:29
been
19:30
enough and I can wash it down not only
19:32
