What Makes the Egg McMuffin a Breakfast Icon
The Egg McMuffin has been a cornerstone of the McDonald’s breakfast menu for more than 55 years. A California franchisee invented the sandwich back in 1971, revolutionizing breakfast on-the-go and changing the way Americans thought about morning meals. The sandwich features a freshly cracked egg made from 100% U.S. sourced cage-free eggs, layered with Canadian bacon and melted American cheese on a toasted and buttered English muffin.
