McDonald's reveals new breakfast sandwich

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....

McDonald’s should not be allowed to call their slop “food”.

I’m interested. I will likely try it. Not on a McGriddle though. Blech! Those things are sickening.

Looks good but im afraid 2 sausages plus bacon and egg might taste a little rich. One sausage

Those do look delicious but I probably wouldn’t order one. A mcmuffin with egg, sausage and cheese only, no double items.

I do love their iced coffees...so much better than Starbucks.

Is rather have all that stuff on a plate with some whole wheat toast and jam, and a half-gallon of coffee to wash it all down with. And two more strips of bacon.

I must be hungry because I'm in the middle of a four day fast. Damn you Mickey D's!

I’ll try it if they are sold with no cheese.
Even when I request no cheese, I have to check when I receive it. Most workers get into a rhythm of constructing sandwiches, and keep putting the same thing on each meal.
It happens more when there’s a language barrier, and my broken Spanish request of ‘No quiero queso, por la desayuno’ goes unheard or not understood.

I like making the Egg McMuffins at home. I make them much better than McDonalds.

What I do is fry up two extra-large eggs along with 2-3 thick slabs of bacon (per sandwich). I then toast up the English muffins and put Kerrygold butter on them. Then I take two thick slices of swiss cheese and put it all together. So very good. So much better than how it is made at the McDonalds. But I will eat the ones from McDonalds from time to time if it is not convenient to make myself. However, I get thirsty after having the McDonalds ones. I think they put too much salt.

A REALLY well made, tasty BREAKFAST BURRITO would be welcome ... made well with quality ingredients!

On the one or two times a year I get breakfast from Mickey D's, I prefer the sausage muffin cuz the biscuits tend to be too greasy for me.

But, the truth is that the only thing I really want from there is a Quarter Pounder w/cheese meal. I bought and consumed one about five months ago and I'm thinking I may have another before the end of the year.
