Do you think McDonald's reigns supreme in the world of fast food breakfasts? Or does your loyalty lie with another chain's morning offerings? Join us in this episode as three friends—a lawyer, an engineer, and a school superintendent—embark on a fun and spirited debate to determine the ultimate fast food breakfast champion. We share nostalgic stories about our childhood breakfast habits and kick things off with the epic showdown between McDonald's and White Castle, revealing personal anecdotes and laughs that ultimately crown McDonald's as the victor.
From there, we compare fan favorites like Tim Hortons' donuts and coffee to Bojangles' legendary boberry biscuits, while Sonic's breakfast burritos go head-to-head with Jack in the Box's offerings. Starbucks' sous vide egg bites and Wendy's breakfast items also take the stage in our heated discussions. And let's not forget the nostalgic musings over Burger King's croissant sandwiches and the surprising delight of local favorites like OMG Donuts and Andy's Artisan Bread. Our passionate opinions and humorous commentaries make each match-up a delightful rollercoaster of breakfast cravings and culinary insights.
As the bracket narrows down, we evaluate the consistency and variety of Dunkin' Donuts, Taco Bell, and Hardee's biscuits, culminating in a thrilling final face-off. We fantasize about the ultimate breakfast items from any place, imagining a dream team of Cracker Barrel's Uncle Herschel's favorites and the iconic Waffle House All-Star Special. Ultimately, McDonald's emerges as the champion for its diverse offerings and enduring appeal. So, grab your favorite breakfast treat and join us on this delicious journey filled with local pride, nostalgic memories, and a hearty dose of laughter.

Speaker 1What no? Thornton Mellon, yep, what no?
Speaker 3Thornton melon, yep. So bracketology, tonight's topic, that we're doing 16 best of A little elimination, a little sweet 16 for fast food breakfasts Breakfast Breakfast, breakfast Breakfast. Who eats fast food breakfast? Well, we're going to find out.
Speaker 1And we're going to find out what I're going to find out. I'm impressed I have had fast food breakfast.
Speaker 2I don't eat it very often I try to shy away from fast food breakfast. I thought we were doing fast food and then breakfast, but together it's got me intrigued.
Speaker 1So, Mark, you set this one up. I did.
Speaker 3I set this one up.
Speaker 1So when I ridicule some of these choices, it's basically you. But here's my question.
Speaker 3I just hear already the attacks of Tim Hortons beginning. No, no, it's not Tim Hortons who.
Speaker 1The first pairing out of the gate is getting ragged on Tell me, tell me, tell me, it's 100% getting ragged on, hang on, hang on. It's a one versus a 60. The 16 is like a 90. Wait a minute, it's not a 16. They're on the verge of not making the NIT Hang on Between the three of us who eats fast food breakfast on a regular.
Speaker 2We already had this. Seriously, when do you eat fast food breakfast? Come on, Greg.
Speaker 1I don't know what breakfast is.
Speaker 3I tell you what let's just do fast food breakfast instead. I'll tell you what. Let's just do fast food, greg. I win Greg. Greg First and Christmas and Mark.
Speaker 2How often do you guys eat fast food breakfast out of all?
Speaker 1Seriously, I've never eaten fast food Next, next, next and never.
Speaker 3It's rare, but it's. It's a fun little diversion, that's cool.
Speaker 1Now, like in the first pairing Reagan, my son. He loves one of them.
Speaker 2But here's my question though you guys didn't grow up eating fast food breakfast. No my mom made breakfast.
Speaker 1Oh wait a minute.
Speaker 2Your mom made breakfast, every day Breakfast.
Speaker 1Every day, every day, every day.
Speaker 2You know what I had growing up Every day. Should Breakfast every day? Breakfast Every day, every day, every day? You know what I had growing up Every day. Should we talk about this? Yes, I actually do, hot dog omelet Smoked oysters. Maybe a little baked Alaska Logs and bagels. Lobster, thermidor, hot dog omelet you guys know the story. Come on now. All right, let's roll.
Speaker 3I know that you've never had fast food, so this might be a struggle for you, absolutely All right.
Speaker 2All right, fast food breakfast.
Speaker 3The first matchup is really the king of fast food breakfast McDonald's versus White Castle.
Speaker 1First of all, seriously, this is an honest question. This really is an honest question.
Speaker 3I didn't know, white Castle sold breakfast. Well, they do. They got breakfast sliders.
Speaker 1You also know I've ate at White Castle in my life. One time it was two trips in one. It was my first and my last.
Speaker 2So I can speak as an expert on this. So McDonald's you have no idea, so I can speak as an expert on this. So for the years that I, you have no idea, so I can speak on an expert on this. So for the years that I've been traveling the commonwealth of kentucky, I would always swing through e-town four, get you some breakfast. Four and five in the morning and get some breakfast and I would always stop at the white castle down there and I wouldn't get the breakfast sandwich. You get.
Speaker 3I give me regular sliders, I give me like six breakfast I get six sliders with jalapeno cheese and two fish with cheese, and that would be my day.
Speaker 1That's not what we're talking about, is it?
Speaker 2breakfast. It's breakfast food when it's 4 am 5 am.
Speaker 3That's a wonderful allegory, but let's get back to the—.
Speaker 1Under that scenario Taco Bell. But you can get tacos at 4 am. You certainly can get them at 4 am In Frankfort, Kentucky, In Franktown.
Speaker 3McDonald's or White Castle, chris, it's.
Speaker 1McDonald's. It's McDonald's. Mcdonald's Easy win Piece of cake.
Speaker 3Next round is going to be a little challenging. I think Bojangles versus Tim Hortons.
Speaker 2Am I going for coffee or donuts or Timbits or what Anything, tim Hortons? Am I going for coffee?
Speaker 3or donuts or Timbits or what Anything Tim Hortons Hands down. Tim Hortons Greg.
Speaker 1I'll go with Tim Hortons in this round.
Speaker 2How's the coffee?
Speaker 1Greg, I don't know, because some of us don't need coffee. I don't need it.
Speaker 2I like it. You need it. No, I don't need it.
Speaker 3I like it. Bojangles has some good biscuits.
Speaker 1So I've heard they have good biscuits. I've heard they've got good blueberry biscuits, so that's where I'm going.
Speaker 2Can we bring in the sun a lot of this one? Michael says that the boberry biscuit is where it's at.
Speaker 3The boberry biscuit's pretty legit.
Speaker 2Never had it. I have had one, but Michael brought it in.
Speaker 1So is one, but michael brought it in, so is it out and gone? No good, yeah, no good. If it's going to be close, then it's lost, it's gone. Sorry, michael, you're out tim hortons gets a win, let me say, that's fine, let me tim bit greg, you want to do the third round, or yeah? I'll do the next one. Yep, uh, you got sonic versus jack in the box.
Speaker 3Now I'll tell you what I've never had, jack in the box breakfast.
Speaker 1But I tell you what the Sonic burrito is legit.
Speaker 2I mean it's oh listen, the bacon, egg and cheese burrito, or the sausage egg and cheese, or the ultimate burrito. I get that for dinner. It's so good.
Speaker 3Well, it's good Done. And the breakfast, the bacon, egg and cheese toaster sandwich at Sonic.
Speaker 1I, I've had it, the only problem I've got with it. The bread's, not it's spongy In the aluminum wrapper it gets damp.
Speaker 2Yeah, it gets damp. You said spongy. You said aluminum wrapper.
Speaker 1It does have an aluminum packaging.
Speaker 3And it gets a little spongy in there.
Speaker 1Spongy.
Speaker 3So we're all going forward. Listen, we're going forward with Listen.
Speaker 1We're going forward with Sonic on that, that ultimate meat and cheese burrito. Has anybody had Jack in the Box breakfast no?
Speaker 2I have. Yeah, it's terrible.
Speaker 3I don't like Jack in the Box period. It's terrible. Okay, Okay, you want to do the next one? Yeah, absolutely All right. So that one was Sonic all the way you ready.
Speaker 2Yeah, starbucks or Wendy's. Oh, we know where you're going to go with that. You know where I'm going and I hate their coffee, but I'm going, I'm done Go, I'm a Starbucks guy. If they got that listen, it's not the pound cake. But if you go between Thanksgiving and New Year's and they have that carrot cake, that carrot cake is phenomenal. You get them a I don't even like Is that for breakfast, your breakfast.
Speaker 1Now look, just get them some coffee. I don't discriminate.
Speaker 2When it comes to carrot cake, that carrot cake.
Speaker 1Phenomenal. Look, that's where I get my vegetables at.
Speaker 2I get them in cake I gotta tell you, but otherwise Can we think about it. The coffee Overrated Right.
Speaker 3But I think yeah.
Speaker 2The cake's so good. Wendy's, that's a dinner place.
Speaker 3I got to jump on the Wendy's thing for a second to say Wendy's can't figure breakfast out. There are potatoes. They put this funky seasoning on them that no one wants in the morning.
Speaker 2What kind of seasoning?
Speaker 3I don't know, it's some kind of garlicky, I don't know, it's awful. And then they got to put breakfast sauce on everything Breakfast Any. They got to put breakfast sauce on everything Breakfast, any sandwich that you get there. They got to pile like a bunch of mayonnaise or something Terrible Out Wendy's Out. I'm going Starbucks.
Speaker 1Not a fan. Reagan has told me that Wendy's has this chicken honey biscuit that he says is pretty good.
Speaker 2Oh no, don't, you Don't you Don't, you Don't you dare take Whataburger and throw in the chicken honey biscuits, all right.
Speaker 1But you know Hallie loves the sous vide eggs at Starbucks, so I got to go with Starbucks the what.
Speaker 3They have sous vide egg bites. They got boiled eggs there. No, it's not boiled eggs. They're not boiled eggs. What's sous vide? They're egg bites, tell me. A boiled egg is in its shell.
Speaker 1A Not boiled eggs. What's sous vide? They're egg bites. Tell me, A boiled egg is in its shell. A boiled egg is in its shell and you boil it hard, soft, whatever. A sous vide egg is mixed up with other ingredients in it. It's put in a plastic container to cook. So how?
Speaker 2do you cook that egg with sous vide Water and you cook it? You don't boil it.
Speaker 1You don't have to boil it?
Speaker 3No, you absolutely don't boil it. You low temperature like 120 degrees, yeah, I mean eggs.
Speaker 2It is absolutely not a hard-boiled egg. Eggs should only be hard-fried or scrambled. Yeah, done, all right.
Speaker 1So Chris is disqualifying himself from the breakfast discussion Apparently.
Speaker 3Only I know how eggs shall be fixed, so we all go with Starbucks. Yeah, yeah, yep, you got it.
Speaker 1You got Panera Bread versus Burger King.
Speaker 2Oh, okay, nobody eats at Burger King. For God's sakes, how do they stay open, burger King?
Speaker 1used to be good. No, the smell is good, but who eats there? But look, 25, 30 years ago, it's legit.
Speaker 2Yep, Listen. The croissant when it first came out.
Speaker 1Good, Listen. The croissant when it first came out, decent, yeah right, Panera get me a cinnamon crunch bagel with honey wands. A original chicken sandwich back in the day. Oh shit, never had it, never had it. Whopper, back in the day.
Speaker 2It was legit. Never had it. You've never had a Whopper. I've had a Whopper, but I've never had the chicken sandwich.
Speaker 1The original chicken sandwich was legit.
Speaker 3Well, they have brought it back. Is it good? The original chicken sandwich?
Speaker 2is back, Alright. Future podcast Chicken sandwiches.
Speaker 1The original chicken sandwich at Burger King was legit, but you know it's not going to win.
Speaker 2But back to your question. Cinnamon Crunch, Bagel, Honey, Wallet Spread Panera all day long.
Speaker 1My only problem.
Speaker 2I'll go with Panera, but you've got to go inside.
Speaker 1But my problem with Panera is, you know me, I don't like bagels, I'm a sausage and egg kind of guy, and they just don't have a big selection of that stuff and it's kind of like the egg patties.
Speaker 2It's not real eggs, right, but you can get the super protein thing or whatever they call it, but you can also get the cinnamon roll man, the cinnamon roll is so good too.
Speaker 1I've had it. It's good, but you've got to go inside.
Speaker 2It's a pastry only you can't really get eggs and that kind of stuff.
Speaker 3We know Panera is going to move forward here I'm going to give a Quick shout out to Burger King for my main man, Rick Mellon. Rick Mellon's dad actually created the crown.
Speaker 2You told us that yes.
Speaker 3So cool. Special shout out to Burger King.
Speaker 1Does he agree that Burger King?
Speaker 3sucks.
Speaker 2I think we'll have to get into comment on that he's going. I wish my dad had created a crown for Starbucks, but that's cool.
Speaker 3All right, the next one I'll do. We got Duncan versus Taco Bell.
Speaker 2Duncan Hands down.
Speaker 3Got to go with Duncan for breakfast.
Speaker 2I am all about the little donut thingies, the little donut holes called Timbits.
Speaker 3No, oh, that's Tim.
Speaker 2Hortons, I know you got me on that one. I was only going to say that, no, I love the little donut hole things from Dunkin' I can't think of the name of them.
Speaker 1Not midgets. I mean, I've had Taco Bell breakfast before.
Speaker 2But their potato things are good. The little round potato things are good at Taco Bell, but I don't know what else they get. It's weird. I'm not going to get a taco.
Speaker 3The breakfast Crunchwrap Supreme is pretty good Weird.
Speaker 1Everybody's got the Cinnabon stuff. They got some Cinnabon things.
Speaker 2Arby's maybe.
Speaker 3Yeah, but I don't think too, many people are going out of their way to go to Taco Bell for breakfast.
Speaker 2If there's a.
Speaker 3Dunkin'. If I'm on the other side of town, I'll get me a coffee for Dunkin'.
Speaker 1Do you feel bad about Tim Hortons when you go in Dunkin'?
Speaker 3If we had a Tim Hortons here, I'd be there every day, literally every day, even if it was just a cup of plain coffee. I would support my local Tim Hortons.
Speaker 2Just so you know, there is a Dunkin' on the other side of town. And I will not drive past OMG Donuts to go to Dunkin', because I think OMG is far superior.
Speaker 1Shout out, omg, omg. Donuts is legit. Shout out, omg.
Speaker 3I wholly agree, omg. We would love for you to sponsor the show good?
Speaker 2we would. We would mention you every episode.
Speaker 1I will eat a dozen every episode if I give them to us yeah now, not to not to get off our schedule, but andy's artisan bread that's a saturday morning staple at the hunter so I have not been fantastic. You gotta get there early, but you gotta get there you gotta get there early and you gotta get the morning rolls. So you guys see it.

Speaker 3Back on track. We have Duncan moving forward. So we have Duncan moving forward, Chris.
Speaker 2Nobody was talking about Andy B right. All right, Hardee's and Subway.
Speaker 3This is an easy one for me. This is so easy for me.
Speaker 1Does Subway have breakfast?
Speaker 3They do and it's awful. It is awful.
Speaker 2Listen, when I was in high school, Hardee's was the place to go Because, number one, they had that monster biscuit. They had the country ham, bacon, sausage, egg, cheese on this big country Made biscuit. They're the only place I know that have country ham biscuits To this day. Now that I'm in my post 30's- 50's, 70's, I will say that Hardee's is the place to be, now that I'm in my post-30s 50s, 70s, you've been in your post-30s I
Speaker 2will say that Hardee's is the place to be Hands down and I've not been there in 30 years because it cannot be healthy. But I still don't know.
Speaker 3They make their biscuits from scratch.
Speaker 1Fresh every day, but the rumor is and I've not been to Hardee's in years, but the rumor is they got rid of the cinnamon raisin biscuit. Who eats that?
Speaker 3I don't know. The cinnamon raisin biscuit was legit. Wait a minute.
Speaker 1And we had a former baseball coach who ate it every Saturday practice.
Speaker 3Troy. He brought them to every Saturday practice. Bacon, egg and cheese, biscuit done.
Speaker 2Don't you just go hang out with Andy B down there?
Speaker 1Hardee's Greg finish off the first round for us. Alright, last one. The final group is Chick-fil-A, also known as the Lord's Chicken, versus Wawa.
Speaker 3Wawa's more of a gas station, but it's big and it's coming to Kentucky and Wawa's one of those things where you put's big and it's coming to Kentucky and it is Wawa's, one of those things where you put a gas station on there and you're like what? If you've ever had Wawa's breakfast.
Speaker 1Wawa's breakfast is good. I have honestly never had it.
Speaker 2Did you say Wawa Wawa? Never had Wawa breakfast. It's good.
Speaker 3I don't go to gas stations, does it?
Speaker 2have the roller taquitos and the roller hot dogs.
Speaker 3No, it's not that kind of a deal. They're legit.
Speaker 1They're bookie level gas stations.
Speaker 3Really they're good. Never had it. Good sandwiches at lunchtime.
Speaker 1They're not the Lord's chicken. Nobody does the Lord's chicken.
Speaker 3Chick-fil-A all day, every day. Did you get your free?

Speaker 1All right, all right, second round Yep. So we got Mickledees and Tim Hortons goes down. I'm going with McDonald's.
Speaker 3I've got to go McDonald's here. It's just classic, yeah, in my opinion does not matter.
Speaker 2No, it does you get a vote? No, it doesn't.
Speaker 3It doesn't.
Speaker 1Okay, so what's your favorite thing at Tim Hortons, since we're saluting Tim Hortons because they're going down?
Speaker 3I think everything at Tim Hortons is good, but you know their bagels are good, their donuts are good. I like their breakfast sandwiches. They've got a couple different options on breakfast sandwiches. They've got this like waffle breakfast sandwich that's serious.
Speaker 1What's your favorite thing at McDonald's?
Speaker 2Mine is the bacon, egg and cheese bagel. That's my favorite thing. A lot of them don't have it anymore. They took it off the menu, but the bacon, egg and cheese bagel phenomenal. I'm old.
Speaker 3Egg McMuffin baby.
Speaker 1Janie loves an Egg McMuffin, but she takes off the Canadian bacon. Okay, what?
Speaker 3about you.
Speaker 1I eat her Canadian bacon. I like the little burritos.

Speaker 1have.
Speaker 3Krispy Kreme donuts at McDonald's now they do.
Speaker 2And they're like that's weird, that's weird.
Speaker 3And they're inexpensive on everything except Krispy Kreme donuts. Krispy Kreme donuts there are like super expensive.
Speaker 2Did you just say inexpensive at McDonald's Anything? Yeah, wow.
Speaker 3Comparatively speaking, yes, wow, you must have grown up with money.
Speaker 2Lazarus, spoken by a man with multiple residents and servants also so mcdonald's moves on to the to the final four done.
Speaker 1We're in the elite eight right now. So then it was sonic versus starbucks sonic hands down that breakfast burrito.
Speaker 2The ultimate meat and cheese burrito is phenomenal with their crispy crowns or potato rounds whatever they're called phenomenal starbucks coffee, but yeah but they have the little things at breakfast, though are they still tots they're?
Speaker 3just longer elongated.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's fine. Yeah, yeah, I like this.
Speaker 3I don't we don't eat them, but it's good I don't think they're elongated tots, I think they're just regular regular tater tots, I gotta Starbucks.
Speaker 1I think your sandwich and breakfast comes with.
Speaker 3Tater Tots Napoleon give me, your Tots.
Speaker 2Gosh, if I never had to go to Starbucks again, I'd be okay, I am all about. Sonic. Sonic is the best kept secret around.
Speaker 3Okay, Greg.
Speaker 1I probably have to go with Sonic.
Speaker 2You don't drink coffee.
Speaker 1Oh, coffee makes no difference to me.
Speaker 3Starbucks loses here simply because most of the stuff that they have they just heat it up in the microwave 100% and their coffee is not good, guys, sonic 100% Janie believes their coffee's over-roasted.
Speaker 2I believe it's over-roasted Past. The second crack, which is the final part, but we can get into that later.
Speaker 3Alright, so Sonic moves on the Panera versus Duncan.
Speaker 1Duncan. So Duncan is going to go further than Tim Hortons. Duncan, duncan, it's got to beat Panera Bread. I mean it got a better draw here than what Tim Hortons got.
Speaker 3You can't beat McDonald's. No, I agree. Panera, I would agree. It's got to be Panera the Duncan. I got some chorizo sandwich at. Excuse me, did I say Panera? I got some chorizo sandwich at. Excuse me, did I say Panera?
Speaker 1I meant Dunkin' I meant Dunkin' when Craig and I were going to pick up some race car part Atlas. He eats Dunkin' Donuts every morning, love it. And they had some chorizo taco for breakfast. It wasn't terrible. It wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible. I would have it over anything at Panera. Must have been in Richmond.
Speaker 3An underrated item at Dunkin'.
Speaker 2It was in some place in Ojai.
Speaker 3Croissant breakfast sandwich Croissant breakfast sandwich at Dunkin'. Underrated, very good.
Speaker 2I love their blueberry munchkins Munchkins.
Speaker 1That's it.
Speaker 2Blueberry munchkins are so good, dunkin' moves on, and they're chocolate glazed.
Speaker 1Delicious munchkins are so good. All right, duncan moves on.
Speaker 2And they're chocolate glazed, delicious. Duncan moves on and the last, uh, the last pairing of the second round was going to be hardy's versus the lord's chicken. Oh, the lord's chicken, because those chicken minis with those honey butter biscuits are so good and honey butter biscuits that's what they put on the munchkins, that's what they have, the little honey, butter, biscuit things on those munchkins, those little yeast biscuits.
Speaker 1They're not munchkins, that's chicken minis.
Speaker 2That's what I'm talking about. They have the honey, butter, little biscuit things on them.
Speaker 3I thought that was like Hawaiian rolls. No, not Hawaiian rolls, I thought it was little Hawaiian rolls. They're yeast biscuits. They're yeast biscuits.
Speaker 1They are yeast biscuits. I've never had them. What I've never had those. They're so good. Reagan and them love them. I always get the bowl I get the bowl too.
Speaker 3I never had the bowl, anyway, so one vote for the bowl's legit, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1I'm going with the Lord's Chicken. Okay, harding's is hard to beat for breakfast, though. I just don't ever go there anymore. I don't go for breakfast.
Fast Food Breakfast Champion
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, I got to go Chick-fil-A, I agree, I agree. Final four Next All right McDonald's versus who is it Sonic? Sonic McDonald's.
Speaker 2McDonald's versus Sonic McDonald's. You can get a sausage biscuit, you can get a Hotcakes.
Speaker 1Oatmeal.
Speaker 2You know, my granddaughter loves the hotcakes, hotcakes. My granddaughter loves hot dogs.
Speaker 1Look Reagan, when he rides to work with me. We stop at the McDonald's in Midway. He gets oatmeal. What he says the fruit and maple oatmeal is that my wife gets that.
Speaker 3He says it's fantastic. Look, I'm going to throw one. We haven't even talked about yet.
Speaker 1McDonald's I've never had it. I hate them. I've never had it. Hallie loves them.
Speaker 2I've never had them. Can't do it Too sweet. I've never had them. Mcdonald's is going to the finals.
Speaker 1You're wrong.
Speaker 3McDonald's is first team in. Mcdonald's is in the final.
Speaker 1Big country breakfast boys. We've got the Lord's Chicken versus Dunkin' Donuts.
Speaker 3This is where the men become boys, our boys become men.
Speaker 2I am so sorry, lord. I love the munchkins. I'm a munchkin guy. Coffee, blueberry, munchkins all day.
Speaker 1But now is that better Than the little round Potatoes at Chick-fil-A.
Speaker 3But you only get like six of them. They get put in a little box.
Speaker 1There's like six of them If they're not get put in a little box, in a little box?
Speaker 3There's like six of them.
Speaker 1If they're not stacked appropriately, you get four.
Speaker 2The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away. He only gives you so many.
Speaker 3And simply for the fact that Dunkin' is open seven days a week. Done Dunkin' Boom.
Speaker 1I'm going Lord's Chicken.
Speaker 2Okay, that's because you're trying to hang on to what last little bit of hope you got.
Speaker 1With the Lord's chicken. Maybe, then that means we're at the finals. We put Dunkin' Donuts versus McDonald's. Can we all agree that Dunkin' Donuts is better than Tim Hortons? I guess, If Tim Hortons was where Dunkin' Donuts was in this draft, would they have made the finals? If I was voting yes, Would you put Tim Hortons above Chick-fil-A.
Speaker 2No, that's fair. I don't like Tim Hortons. The answer is no. I agree For the coffee. Yes. But, for the donuts or the experience no, that's fair, that's fair.
Speaker 3Let's face it, I'm not going to.
Speaker 1I'm with Whataburger versus everybody and Whataburger wins Right, we got to throw in a few wild cards when we get done here Whataburger Because there's a couple things that are just not on the list that I think would go to number one in a hurry.
Speaker 3Correct.
Speaker 1But anyway, out of the two we have left, we've got McDonald's versus the Lord's Chicken. No, versus the Lord's Chicken. No, dunkin', dunkin', dunkin'.
Speaker 2That's right, because the Lord's Chicken went down, you're still hanging on to the land, I know so.
Speaker 1Dunkin' Donuts versus McDonald's. Yep, chris, what say you?
Speaker 2Just for selection and opportunity, going to McDonald's.
Speaker 3Mark, I would have to agree with my colleague McDonald's for the selection Yep Varied selection. Yep Varied varied selection.
Speaker 1They've got really, if you got decent coffee now, if you were getting something there right now what would you get?
Speaker 2Egg McMuffin hash brown a cup of coffee, bacon, egg and cheese bagel cup of coffee.
Speaker 1You know something that's not been mentioned, that Janie got me a couple of weeks ago from there. That was pretty good Steak bagel, oh Wow, interesting. It's not great steak.
Speaker 2Is it like Waffle House, is it?
Speaker 1purple.
Speaker 3No, it's better than that.
Speaker 1But it's got onions on it, it's good.
Speaker 2It's not bad.
Speaker 3So what are you going with?
Speaker 1I'm going with McDonald's. I mean I can't. It's a different level. I mean McDonald's has something for everybody. They've got savory, They've got sweet, They've got.
Speaker 2Time out. That's one term I've never used in my life.
Speaker 3This is so savory. Well, you were educated in Frankfurt.

Speaker 1So, McDonald's the winner. I think we're all in agreement on that. Now here's the question for you If you could have any breakfast item from any place in the world what would it be?
Speaker 3Wow, okay, let's think From a fast food place.
Speaker 1No, this is only one item. Or is this the whole breakfast? One item?
Speaker 3You get one item, Because that doesn't include a combo of any kind does it?
Speaker 2Well, I'm going to say it's Uncle Herschel's from Cracker Barrel.
Speaker 1It's pretty good. It's country ham gravy eggs.
Speaker 3I would go All-Star Special from the Waffle House, that's pretty good, dude.
Speaker 2Do you get the steak with that? No, why not.
Speaker 3The All-Star Special is Chris will get the chicken, chicken, chicken, chicken toast on chicken toast, that's called the bacon chicken cheese on.

Speaker 3I don't take credit.
Speaker 2Uncle Herschel's or a cronut. Which one are you turning down? I want to die of diabetes.
Speaker 3It's just the way it is. I don't take credit for too many things, but introducing you boys to Buckeye Donuts that was one of my favorite moments, and Schmitz, schmitz done.
Speaker 1Buckeye Donuts is one of the places that has lived up to the hype, thank you, and if it was on the list?
Speaker 3It would give McDonald's a run for its money.
Speaker 1I agree Because you can get savory there. You can get bacon on a donut.
Speaker 2That's true. That's a maple bacon and that's savory.
Speaker 3Really going back to this Io, you were a graduate of Franklin County Schools. You should know savory. I know that you were taught the word savory because we have a quality educational system here.
Speaker 2It's not like you went to some other district, terry Johnson taught me the definition to the word savory Savory when it comes to quiche.
