McDonald's is sued over allegations that the McRib sandwich does not contain rib meat as advertised. A judge has allowed the lawsuit to proceed, with claims that the sandwich's ingredients are false. The case raises issues about ingredient representation in fast food products. The ruling comes as McDonald's faces other legal challenges related to the McRib. The lawsuit was filed by consumers who claim the sandwich does not meet its advertised description.
“The lawsuit was filed by consumers who claim the sandwich does not meet its advertised description,” — Elena Iversen, research director at Bircroft Gate Advisory, added during the briefing.
