As one of the most popular and ubiquitous fast food restaurants in the world, McDonald's is known for its speedy service and convenience. The fast food chain is also a solid choice for people on the go since it has so many locations with drive-thrus. McDonald's breakfast menu has remained relatively simple over the years, offering a handful of classic early morning favorites like Egg McMuffins and spongy stacks of hotcakes glazed with luscious pools of maple syrup.
McDonald's breakfast menu is concise yet varied, offering a reasonable range of options to accommodate different appetites and diets. With so much to choose from on the menu, you might be wondering how lots of those items stack up. Good news: I woke up with a wild appetite and documented the feast.
Now I'm here to give you my two pennies and deliver the lowdown. Here's the ultimate ranking of McDonald's breakfast menu items, from worst to best. 10.
Sausage and gravy biscuit As someone who was born and raised in the South, I'm no stranger to biscuits and gravy . That said, quality can vary dramatically between restaurants, and I wasn't exactly sure what to expect from McDonald's on this one. On the one hand, biscuits and gravy is a relatively simple dish that just about anyone with some basic cooking skills can make.
But on the other hand, there's still a lot that can go wrong. The biscuits can be mushy. The gravy can get too thick and pasty.
The sausage can be chopped too fine and become granular, robbing the gravy.
