McDonald's is hoping a big new breakfast sandwich will help bring in more customers.
Triple Breakfast Stacks will hit menus on November 1. They're modified versions of McDonald's popular Egg McMuffin -- they will include two slices of American cheese, two sausage patties, bacon and an egg, The sandwiches are available on a McMuffin, biscuit, or McGriddles cakes.
The new items are designed to help McDonald's solve a problem: Fewer Americans are eating at the fast food chain. A new breakfast could help bring them back.
In a statement on Tuesday, the company said that the items are inspired by customized orders made by McDonald's (MCD) customers.
"People have been hacking our menu for years," said Mike Haracz, manager of culinary innovation. The triple stacks were inspired by those orders, he said. Linda VanGosen, vice president of menu innovation, said that customers have been requesting bigger sandwiches for breakfast.
McDonald's teased the announcement earlier on Tuesday during a call discussing its third quarter earnings.
Breakfast has been particularly challenging for McDonald's....

They all look fabulous. Yum.
Great coffee, Egg McMuffin tends to be rubbery though.
Good luck getting something that looks even remotely like the promotional photo
I SHALL EAT THESE UNTIL I DIE.
(which should be about four sandwiches)
Yum!
Breakfast is the only thing I’ll eat there. Their “Big Breakfast” (without the pancake option) works just fine.
Their sausage and egg biscuit is pretty good.
Sausage AND bacon. Now we’re talkin’. Why choose when you can have BOTH?
Oh, come on—they might as well just dispense with the egg in those sandwiches!
LOL!
Probably an MSG bomb so no thanks.

And personally, I’d go with a double bacon/single sausage.
They really don’t look good to me.
I sometimes grab a sausage biscuit if I’m on the road early.
The steak, egg and cheese bagel is excellent but can’t really eat while driving. I also like the Big Breakfast, but again, that’s a sit down meal.
And just call it a “bacon sandwich”.
I must be hungry because I'm in the middle of a four day fast.
Damn you Mickey D's!
And I didn't even click on the link. *sigh*

I get the bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit on an English muffin. Much better, especially when you add a little black pepper to it.
Fast food costs too much anymore.
Egg McMuffin works for me ... better now than a few years ago. They used to use too much butter.
