I thought it was interesting that a local KC place was making the "mKCrib", a "real" version of a McRib (I think ribs with the bones pulled out on a sandwich). They closed because it apparently wasn't popular, and yet the much maligned McRib makes huge sales when available.

Someone once told me that you can tell when the McRib is coming back based on pork prices. Apparently they said that when pork falls below a certain threshold McDonalds buys it up & produces McRibs. With McDonalds buying up the pork the price is driven back up & they discontinue until prices fall again. Creates artificial demand that they only supply when costs are low, brilliant if true.

Well they'll be higher once McDonalds runs through them. But I guess i should expect the mcrib to quite a bit more expensive this year. Think they were 2 for 5 last year which seemed higher than normal.

It's not technically the frankenfood that people think. It's a pretty simple process.
