UZI Suicide Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14924690/ McDonald’s considers selling breakfast all day Planned changes to restaurants would allow menu that aided turnaround Reuters Updated: 2:05 p.m. ET Sept 20, 2006 LOS ANGELES - McDonald’s Corp. may soon offer its breakfast menu all day long as a new restaurant layout will make it easier to prepare a wide variety of foods at once, its chief executive said Wednesday. Speaking at the Bank of America 36th Annual Investment Conference in San Francisco, McDonald’s CEO Jim Skinner said the company was implementing a new restaurant operating system that would finally make selling breakfast all day possible. “It’s not compatible with our current operating system,” Skinner said about offering its breakfast menu all day. “But with this system, that could be possible.” The so-called flexible operating platform will make McDonald’s food preparation processes more transparent to customers and “offer more variety with greater ease,” Skinner said. Breakfast sales have been a key part of McDonald’s three-year turnaround thanks in part to products like McGriddles sandwiches and a new, stronger coffee blend. But the restaurants stop serving breakfast late in the morning to switch over to burgers and other items for lunch and dinner. The breakfast period has been the “strongest performer” among McDonald’s three major meal segments in the last two to three years and remains “extremely strong,” Chief Financial Officer Matthew Paull said during the presentation.

Guest Vitamin X Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 Would be great. Even better? To fucking sell the entire menu late at night at the 24 hour ones. What the fuck is the point of being open and displaying the whole menu if you can only order 6 things from it? Fucking assholes. Take my business to Taco Bell or Denny's. Or better yet, the 24 hour subway around the corner in a gas station with the cheap imported beer and spicy pork rinds. God I'll miss that when I move away from here.
BUTT Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 I'd be happier if Burger King did this. Their hash browns are incredible.
Red Baron Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 It probably wont happen in Canada, Chris
CanadianChris Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 No, but at least I won't have to worry about making it to McD's before 11 when I go to the States. Those biscuits are addictive.
Guest Princess Leena Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 More food that will kill people. Fine by me.
MrRant Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 Jack In The Box has been doing this for awhile.
Guest Vitamin X Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 yes but Jack in the Box is a west coast only thing.
MrRant Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 yes but Jack in the Box is a west coast only thing. Those poor East Coast motherfuckers.
tominator89 Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 It's about time they did this.
Mr. S£im Citrus Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 They have JiB in South Carolina... None here in VA, though.
Pegasus Kid Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 Biscuits all day? AWESOME. McDonalds sells biscuits? Is it true they've never had McPizza in the US?
the max Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 Jack In The Box has been doing this for awhile. So has Sonic.
Darthtiki Posted September 24, 2006 Report Posted September 24, 2006 Is it true they've never had McPizza in the US? I saw it once in like 1992 in Lake Tahoe, Nevada...Needless to say I didn't try it I got the Michael Jordan Happy Instead
RepoMan Posted September 26, 2006 Report Posted September 26, 2006 I'd be happier if Burger King did this. Their hash browns are incredible. BK's breakfast is vastly underrated. I prefer it to McDs.

McPizza was the greatest thing ever.
alfdogg Posted September 28, 2006 Report Posted September 28, 2006 Burger King overall has better breakfast, but their biscuits are a bit dry sometimes. I've never had this problem at McD's.
FroGG_NeaL Posted September 29, 2006 Report Posted September 29, 2006 They crumble as soon as you bite into them.
Darthtiki Posted September 29, 2006 Report Posted September 29, 2006 I don't really remember how good McPizza was but I remember being upset when they got rid of it. I want the McRib as a permanent menu item
Black Lushus Posted September 29, 2006 Report Posted September 29, 2006 I don't really remember how good McPizza was but I remember being upset when they got rid of it. I want the McRib as a permanent menu item good lord yes! I'd probably go there every day for lunch if that were so...

I haven't had one since 1997 for some special promotion for Jurrasic Park 2.
Hawk 34 Posted September 29, 2006 Report Posted September 29, 2006 They bring the McRib back every other year, it seems. I get one and then I realize why that is.
