McRib: A Business Perspective

I truly enjoyed this in-depth business perspective on McRib, wherein author Willy Staley suggests the sandwich is an arbitrage. His entire premise recasts McDonald’s as a supply chain, and their sandwiches as products.

It starts off simply enough and then, wham!, it’s commodities and futures and graphs. But interesting stuff!
