I love McDonalds egg mcmuffins but they’re 4 bucks now.
They’re usually 2 for $4.
Here in Maine I sometimes get two for the price of one coupons for Egg McMuffins.
Years ago (the mid 1970’s) when I lived in Santa Barbara, California, my Dad knew the guy who invented the Egg McMuffin.
My Dad told me that McDonalds didn’t pay the man any money for the Egg McMuffin. The man was a McDonald’s franchisee in Santa Barbara, and for his reward for inventing the Egg McMuffin, McDonald’s gave him a “territory”...all of Santa Barbara County. He was the franchise owner of every and any McDonalds restaurant in Santa Barbara County.
From what I understood at the time, McDonalds never awarded “territories,” at least back in those days.
I forgot the man’s name, but I saw his obituary on line several years ago.
