Class-action lawsuit claims McDonald’s McRib doesn’t actually contain rib meat

quote:

A class-action lawsuit accuses McDonald’s of misleading customers and claims that the McRib does not actually contain any pork rib meat.

The lawsuit claims McDonald’s is deceiving customers who “reasonably (but mistakenly) believe that a product named the ‘McRib’ will include at least some meaningful quantity of actual pork rib meat.”


quote:

The four plaintiffs allege the sandwich does not contain any rib meat, but instead is made up of ground-up portions of pork shoulder, heart and scalded stomach.

McDonald’s describes the McRib as “seasoned boneless pork dipped in a tangy BBQ sauce, topped with slivered onions and tangy pickles, all served on a toasted homestyle bun.”

The lawsuit claims that McDonald’s knows it is misleading consumers because it includes “Rib” in the name of the McRib and goes “out of its way to shape the sandwich’s patty into the shape of a pork rib.”

unless it made you sick or someone dies it's a frivolous lawsuit

all McDonald's would do is raise the prices of other menu items to cover any potential pay out

once again, the lawyers will make out like bandits

And a salisbury steak is not a real steak, but rather a meatloaf patty formed into the shape of a steak. And so on and so on...

Are they hoping to force them to call it McScalded-pork-stomach instead?

Especially when they serve them barely lukewarm, which is virtually all of the time.

I am actually a huge McDonald's fan.

The McRib is the only thing on their menu that is absolutely disgusting and not tolerable.

Not at all...you should google "famous false advertising lawsuites". Individuals and groups have been successfully suing or settling lawsuites purely bases on false advertising, even when no other harm was done to the plaintiff. Taco Bell, Reebok and many more have paid out settlements.

Wait, you’re telling me it’s not actually a de-boned rack of ribs?

And to add to this, it's not even from Salisbury! It's from a suburb of Salisbury, called Salisbury Heights. The nerve...

You mean the processed meat patty pressed into a rib shape isn’t actually ribs? No fricking way /s

I’m not sure it actually contains meat
