re: Cancelled food items that were a huge mistake

Why isn’t the McRib available all year long? Is there fake pork shortage throughout most of the year.

As someone in the McD supply chain, I can tell you why: thanksgiving and Christmas are the Massive spikes of Honey baked hams.

Therefore there is a glut of meat that doesn’t go into that that goes extremely cheap as a consequence.

McD can get their rib formed patties for cheap, ramping up profit margins especially with the synergy of people who actually enjoy it and having gone without for a year.




But if it makes you feel better, it’s coming. The first batch of the sauce they bury it in is being made and packaged next week.

And it’s a joke amongst food R+D scientists because it uses like 10x the amount of seasoning concentrates of typical BBQ sauces. They want you to taste that, not the trash meat.
