The complaint states the McRib is made from restructured pork using various cuts, none of which are actual rib meat

So it's still mostly or entirely pork, maybe?

Yes, its release coincides with pork prices.

Shoulder pork, the lowest grade of pork available. Which is nowhere near the ribs.

Wouldn't expect anything more from McDonald's.
