McRibs taste exactly like these to me. A reminder of growing up poor. I’d say I can still taste the potatoes but they were totally devoid of flavor.

If you add salt, pepper and butter the potatoes are good. Because they taste like salt, pepper and butter

When I first looked at the image I couldn’t make out the potatoes? As an European I was really interested in the ingredients of this. I knew US food safety is debatable and the regulations are much weaker than in the EU, but what the fuck is this? This is the most insane ingredient list I saw in my whole life. How is it possible you do not glow green and shit silver colored liquids after digesting this? It makes me really sad that people really have to eat such garbage. The US is such a shithole for poor people.
