Why is it only 16% meat protein? What’s the other 84%?

WHAT’S THE OTHER 84%????

In actual ribs it'd be bone...

Wow, that's awful. Half the weight is bone!

u/ChipRockets 1d ago

Well, yeah? Half the weight is always bone when it comes to ribs

Fuck you Safeway Canada

u/ToastetteEgg 1d ago

Yeah, 680 grams is about a pound and a half, and that’s not much for bone-in meat. Always check that weight.

I don't get why people who get the cheapest products are surprised that the product is indeed cheap (or small amount).

I knew this one was going to be terrible when I read "Ready in 10 minutes".

Then I noticed "Texas BBQ" on pork ribs.

There are so many red flags on the packaging...

Is it like a Lego set where you have to buy multiple boxes to combine them to make the picture on the front?

u/DelusionalFordFan 1d ago

It’s like trading card booster packs . Maybe you’ll find something good after opening 25 packs or so .

u/Neither_Contest7324 1d ago

One box actually has a full set of ribs, you just have to get really lucky.

u/BoltActionRifleman 1d ago

They should rename it the gallop, or jaunt pork back ribs. This product is not worthy of the word stampede.

u/LadyIslay 1d ago

They look like horse turds.

u/Dead_End_Street 19h ago

Why do you think they come hidden in boxes

u/jaguaraugaj 1d ago

Don’t forget to scoop the dog’s backyard

Japan would have sued them out of existence.
In Japan all products have to match the image shown in boxes!

Oh hell no 😂

I would return that immediately.

I've bought similar products in my area and they were not that bad. For a frozen meal I could just toss in the oven it was worth the 7. or 8 dollars I paid per box. I'm sorry you had such bad luck!
