I went to McDonalds. They didn't have the McGriddle anymore. I left.
Don't tease me with breakfast if you don't continue to sell your best item.

Yes, it's going to be harder. Buy giving people what they want obviously will boost any sagging business.

In the plot to turn around McDonald's, the McMuffins are a MacGuffin.
Who goes to McDs for biscuits? Especially when Bojangles and Hardee's/Carls Jr has infinitely better biscuits, and Bojangles also serves theirs all day.

McDonalds and Walmart are DYING!!!!!
Yeah right.
Yeah right.
Yeah they need to take the vastly superior biscuit worldwide. Fuck a McMuffin, but a sausage and egg biscuit? Yes please.
This is true also(i'd add DQ to the list, and alas, there are no bojangles left in the area), but the biscuit, even if inferior to other biscuit competition, is still a million times better than the muffin.

Nice to see it do well for them. They were hemorrhaging money, right?

That just says the implementation has been a headache, and it's mostly anecdotal, not hard numbers.

Not really, as they are talking about 3rd qtr earnings, versus a few franchises complaining about the launching of all day breakfast in the 4th quarter.

You got me. I do love me some McGriddles though.
I had the opposite experience the one time I've had breakfast at dinner.

I need my damn Mc'griddles on the all day breakfast menu.
Exactly, this is a democracy. Where was the vote? How did I get stuck in Mcmuffin territory when clearly Biscuits are best!

I never knew that were a McD Biscuit GAF defense force.
No, they weren't hemorrhaging money. They were making plenty of money, but they weren't meeting expected earnings so investors soured on them a bit. As for breakfast all day, no one will know the impact of that until early next year. That just launched two weeks ago and isn't reflected in this earnings report.
My market has biscuits and that's all that matters.
The McD's near me seems to have handled the transition great. Breakfast food is fresh regardless of the time and the lines move just as quickly as before.
It's still pretty dumb that they went with this either/or approach for biscuits and muffins.

My mother is a supervisor for a McDonald's franchise and was saying how breakfast is much more popular than expected. There was concern that the slimmed down breakfast menu would also frustrate people which hasn't really happened. She was also saying how it's been a huge money maker because food costs of breakfast are much much lower than the regular menu so the offset has does a lot for profit margins at a time where they're getting killed on costs.
Who goes to McDonald's for anything, really. Most other food > McGriddle > Fast food breakfast > McMuffin > Detritus

The Waffle Slider breakfast sandwiches at White Castle absolutely WRECKS McGriddles.
At my White Castles they serve them all the time.
I think I need to make a visit to White Castle...

I remember I used to drink their raspberry sweet tea like crazy. It was the best. Too bad I moved back to LA and this market only has the regular sweet tea, which is still good, but just doesn't compare.

I think I made this through laziness once when I didn't want to go to the store and just combined some things I had left in the fridge.
Do the waffles have hunny in them?! Huh?! HUH?!! Check & mate. McGriddles still win!

Spicy Chicken Biscuit is GOAT!
What they do the spicy for breakfast?

I don't see where this has anything to do with breakfast all day. This was the third quarter ending September 30th, while the breakfast thing didn't begin until October.

That's pretty much what I make at home every time I have all those ingredients at once. (Which was very often in the past). Seems like a no brainer tbh.
Yeah I would cut someone for late night CFA breakfast.
Spicy chicken biscuit with honey roasted BBQ and a couple of hashbrowns on the biscuit. Damn good.
