"The McRib is back!" reads the description. "It starts with seasoned boneless pork dipped in a tangy BBQ sauce, topped with slivered onions and dill pickles, all served on a toasted homestyle bun. When everything combines you have BBQ pork sandwich perfection. Get one while you can because this is the McRib Farewell Tour."

The official press release, meanwhile, tells a slightly different story.

"Like any true farewell tour, we’re hoping this isn’t a 'goodbye' but a 'see you later,' it reads. "Because as our McRib stans have experienced time and time again: you never know when – or if – the McRib is coming back."
