Comments on: BK Jilts Croissanwich for English Muffin Test http://www.burgerbusiness.com/?p=3025 MENU & MARKETING NEWS WITH PLENTY OF NAPKINS Wed, 08 Sep 2010 13:20:58 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Wayne http://www.burgerbusiness.com/?p=3025&cpage=1#comment-4027 Wayne Sun, 18 Apr 2010 07:00:50 +0000 http://www.burgerbusiness.com/?p=3025#comment-4027 McD's has it hands down in all catagories. BK's muffin is about 1/4th smaller than the McMuffin, and what little bit on the muffin that is supposed to be egg is very disapointing. As most of us know, the McMuffin has a whole egg, complete with yolk that fits the muffin. BK's new muffin has a square piece of what appears to be egg substitute, about 2in. by 2in square, and barely an eighth of an inch thick. IS this a copy of a McMuffin? Not by a long shot. As far as value, moneywise McD's wins hands down, as well as taste, size and just about any way. BK CAN make a breakfast muffin that would compete, but not with what they are offering now.

Burger King...the eggs that can't be sold to consumers in the store (because they are cracked or inferior) are sent to an egg breaking plant to be broken. The liquid is sold and cooked to produce this type of product. Taste is the difference! Don't even compare McD's Egg McMuffin to BK. McDonalds…Real USDA grade A eggs.

If it would not have been for the pepper, I could have eaten a piece of cardboard and it would have tasted better. Muffin was greasy, synthetic egg was tasteless, and the sausage was texture only. McDonalds has BK beat hands down on this one..Sorry King Bottom line, no taste whatsoever.

And a slice of real ham. These sandwiches are paradoxically better than the McD burgers because they use first quality ingredients. The BK Croisandwich used canned scrambled eggs and not so great ham.. If BK can't step up and use quality ingredients, their breakfast will continue to rank way behind the Giants offerings.

The biggest problem I found was the fact that the english muffins are not toasted. I don't believe BK's have toasters but I could be wrong. The straight up Egg McMuffin w/Canadian bacon from McD's is still the champion fast food breakfast sandwich in my opinion.

If nowhere else, in the Chicagoland area BK offered an English muffin sandwich several years ago. Perhaps that was also test marketing, but I ate it, so I know they sold it.
