McRib vs. real Ribs...seeing is believing

A photo purporting to be a slab of frozen McRib "meat" is taking the internet by storm. The popular seasonal offering from McDonald's is usually seen in its fully-prepared state, slathered with barbeque sauce, onions and pickles on a hoagie roll. 


That image bears very little resemblance to the industrialized-looking, pale white hunk of frozen technology in the photo making the rounds now. 

Seeing fast food in its natural state really drives the point home that it is far from natural. 

Here's a little side-by-side photo collage I stitched together, showing the McDonald's version vs. real pork spareribs.  It's time we stopped settling for fake, processed foods loaded with sodium and chemicals.

Veteran's Day 2013

To all who have served or are currently serving our country: THANK YOU.



This is a photo of my father from 1950, after he enlisted in the Navy. He was 18 years old, and was proud to serve his country. I miss him every day.
