TweetNovember 4, 2011–There has recently been testing done on the popular McRib sandwich that is only available at McDonalds at specific times of the year.

This testing that was done found that there are 70 ingredients and out of these there is one that sticks out. This is one that attorney Michael P. Ehline is concerned with, due to the dangers associated with it. The chemical that stuck out when the McRib was tested is Azodicarbonamide, which is a substance that is normally found in the rubber soles of shoes and in the manufacturing of foam gym mats. The reason that attorney Michael P. Ehline is concerned with Azodicarbonamide, which has been banned in Europe and strictly regulated by the FDA. This is a substance that has been linked with cancer and other types of disease or illness.

The banned and strictly regulated substance Azodicarbonamide, during testing of the McRib was found in the bun of the sandwich and appears in a Time Magazine Healthland blog article. The article was published after finding the dangerous substance to warn those people that wait and watch for the sandwich to appear on the McDonalds menu. Personal Injury Attorney, Michael P. Ehline, realizes that the effects of the Azodicarbonamide might not cause immediate health effects, but the chemical makeup of this substance that is used to manufacture foam gym mats could show its health effects at a later time. Those people that wait for this sandwich to appear on the fast food restaurant, if the substance that is used for manufacturing rubber shoe soles is not enough to keep the McRib lovers from consuming the sandwich that could have health affects later. Then possibly the 980 mg of sodium and 500 calories per sandwich should make it a moderately consumed fast food meal.
