    That sandwich always looked nasty and suspect to me. I happen to agree with McDonalds on this one: US District Judge April Perry in McDonald’s hometown of Chicago called it premature ​to accept the company’s argument that no reasonable consumer could expect the McRib to contain rib meat.

      Wait you agree that no one would think the McRib has some rib meat in it?

      Why call it the McRib then?

        Its named because it looks like a mini rack of ribs with bones, in a sandwich. You know you cannot eat bones, right? Yet, there they are. Do you think it has bones too?

          I mean, you can have boneless ribs, but more to the point what kind of meat/flavor profile were they targeting with a rib design? They clearly wanted people to think rib, so why do you find it suprising most people assumed some rib meat would be used.

          You probably agreed with the judge who said vitamin water didn’t mislead people into thinking it was a healthy alternative to soft drinks, when in reality it has just as much sugar and little to no vitamins/benefits.
