    I want to know when and why Burger King decided to carbon copy a Sausage McMuffin with Egg, use that copying in their advertising, and then undercut McDonalds by charging a buck for it.

    Either idiotic or brilliant, I can't decide which.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Isn't the "bun" two fried chicken patties? Looks like it to me, which would make it rather different from a Sausage McMuffin with Egg.

    Sausage McMuffins are a buck.

    They should just use the sausage as bread.

    Sausage
    Cheese
    Egg
    Sausage

    Yumm!

    I don't follow the fast food industry, actually. I thought we were just talking about this product. ;)

    Ahhh, but McD's charges an extra buck and a half for the egg. That's the rub.

    This isn't just a product, this will be a lifestyle!

    It's just one of the many benefits from Obamacare that we will all be able to enjoy! Fried food without worry.

    Dare to dream.

    I still like the concept of the burger with two grilled cheese sandwiches as the bun. This is pretty cutting-edge too, though.

    Huh?!? Is the chicken rubbing the egg? The egg rubbing the chicken? Or are you rubbing both of them?

    And more importantly, who came first?

    I think Norm MacDonald made a joke about this that went: you have to decide between a delicious chicken sandwich or living.

    I thought the greatest invention in fast food history was lap band surgery.

    They did it a few stores for a limited time to see if there would be any demand. Now it's going to on the menu at every KFC.
