We are almost in 2007. The citizens of the world can now communicate with each other within seconds via the internet, I can arrange my television viewing habits so that I never have to watch a commercial again and my car literally tells me where to drive.
Yet, if I want an egg mcmuffin or a friggin mcgriddle at 11:30 AM, I am out of luck. Are you kidding me? I know, I know, the food is bad for you. I would not be an idiot and eat the stuff for 30 straight days. No one is that stupid. Oh, nevermind.
We can debate all the political and cultural issues, however this is one issue where the left and right need to come together. It is time for McDonald’s to enter the 1990’s and offer their breakfast menu all day. Give me a mcgriddle at noon or give me death.

MDeFl – amen! my husband and I say this all the time! Sometimes they cut it off prior to the official lunch time deadline. And heaven help you if you are either right on the time or a few minutes after: “Hey John, do we still have Egg McMuffins, hash browns and mcGriddles? Oh, only McGriddles? OK thanks!”
Only in our area, the time is 10:30 am! Who wants a Big Mac at 10:30 in the morning? Alright, perhaps somebody does, but yes – I still should be able to get my Egg McMuffin!

MBT–
Sometimes I want a Big Mac at 10:30 AM, and it puzzles me as to why an eatery such as McD’s, that was built around the hamburger cannot accommodate my urge to have the occasional double McGreasy with cheese for breakfast.
I boycotted McD’s for about 20 years because of their now defunked “no substitutions” policy.If it weren’t for those kids of mine, and their appetite for McNuggets, I would probably still be very McHappy not ever going there again.

I’ll start eating at McDonalds when they introduce McWine in white and red artificial flavors.

…..and they could serve the McWine in a juice box. Just poke the little straw through the hole in the top and you’re good to go.

Joe – you are absolutely right – I have run into the oppositie problem – especially wqhile travelling – get up at 3 am, hit the road and at about 11 am I’m REALLY ready for lunch – no go – breakfast until 11:30. I aggree with you , but our protests won’t go very far – all those families with little ones and hungry workers are keeping the chain running quite well without us.
Even my kids don’t like them anymore.

The McGriddle- Is it that good?…
Ok, what is this fascination with McDonald’s McGriddle? There are many people who are sure it is the end all be all of breakfast. Many people that I speak with as it relates to quick and good breakfast notes this…
