McDonalds changed the breakfast sandwich game again with the introduction of the McGriddle, a breakfast sandwich between two syrup filled pancakes.
The Sausage McMuffin with Egg is officially put into the breakfast rotation, offering an alternative to the OG McMuffin's ham.
It took three years for the Egg McMuffin to find broad release but it reshaped the fast food breakfast game.
In 1972, McDonald's employees Herb Peterson and Donald Graedel attempt to make an eggs benedict but instead create an entirely new breakfast food.
