McDonald’s is bringing back its McRib sandwich for a limited time from October 31 through November 20.
Since it was taken off the menu in 2005, the fast-food chain had intermittently brought back the iconic sandwich.
The chain says the McRib is going on a “Farewell Tour,” which they’re hoping isn’t a ‘goodbye’ but a ‘see you later.’
In honor of the “Farewell Tour,” the fast-food chain is releasing custom merchandise, including limited-edition, throwback-inspired art, clothing and memorabilia that features the McRib throughout the decades. The McRib merchandise will be available beginning November 4 at GoldenArchesUnlimited.com.

In July, McDonald’s said that lower-income consumers are spending less at its restaurants and trading down to cheaper items.
