McDonald's and breakfast lovers, rejoice!
After the much anticipated wait, company officials have announced that they will start serving breakfast all-day on October 6. The vote was made last week by the franchise leadership council. If all of this sounds familiar, it's because it is.
For the past several months, McDonalds has been testing the notion of all-day breakfast in several markets. Customers wanted to be able to grab a hash brown, or Egg McMuffin whenever they wanted.
McDonald's USA President Mike Andres told The Wall Street Journal, "This is the consumers' idea. This is what they want us to do. That's why I think this could be the catalyst for our turnaround.
"Some, but not all breakfast items, will be available on the all-day menu. The most popular staples, like the Egg McMuffin, the Sausage McMuffin and hash browns will be made available throughout store hours. Depending on the location, items will vary.
To start spreading the news on social media, McDonald's decided to tweet at some of the customers who had asked them about all day breakfast in the past.

Just like Jack in the Box.
Cool...now you can have tasteless crap all day.
The egg mcmuffin is a perfect sammich
You forgot:
“Non-nutritional”

If you don’t like “tastless crap”, why would you eat it all day long?
Some of these comments are so predictable and silly. If you don’t like it, don’t eat it.
Oh goodie, even LONGER waits caused by confused morons in the drive-thru.
What do you mean “non-nutritional”?
WHOA! Sorry ‘bout the size!
The Egg McMuffin is the best thing they’ve got. I used to like their hamburger and their fries, back in the day, but I think they changed the recipe or something, because they don’t taste quite as good as they used to.
Strong customer demand.
Jeb likes the sausage burrito. (So do I!)
My favorite: the hash brown lard cake.
That is pretty good.
I love their sausage mcMuffin. Don’t even need the egg. I know it’s not real meat, I know it will probably kill me, but it calls to me... what can I say?
Yep remember Michael Douglas arrived at that place just a few minutes past breakfast.
With all day breakfast that particular event wouldn’t happen if they made that movie today...........
I guess with business down the way it is and lots of pre cooking they can do it now, back in my day I didn’t have enough grill space to run different temps let alone deal with cross contamination. Back when I started at McD’s I had 130 hourly employees on the schedule, twenty two plus years later when I left I had less than 40, that’s what technology accomplishes.
Hey, my beef has always been, no lunch available until 11 !!
I want a hamburger at 10
Interesting numbers for sure.
I can see the day coming where there could be 2 empl/shift, one for housekeeping and one for logistics.
