Burger King breakfast sandwiches

Burger King Breakfast Sandwiches are a range of breakfast options offered by the international fast-food chain Burger King. Introduced in the late 1970s, these sandwiches have become a staple of the company's breakfast menu and have undergone various changes and additions over the years.

History

The first Burger King breakfast sandwiches were introduced in 1979, as part of the company's expansion into the breakfast market. The initial offerings included the Egg and Cheese 'N Ham Sandwich, which was later renamed the Croissan'wich following the introduction of a croissant as the bread option.

Types of Sandwiches

Burger King offers a variety of breakfast sandwiches, each with different combinations of ingredients. Some of the most popular options include:

• Croissan'wich: This sandwich features a choice of sausage, bacon, or ham, along with eggs and cheese, served on a croissant.
• Biscuit Sandwich: Similar to the Croissan'wich, this sandwich substitutes the croissant with a biscuit.
• French Toast Sandwich: Introduced in 2019, this sandwich features the same fillings as the Croissan'wich and Biscuit Sandwich, but is served between two slices of sweet, golden-brown French toast.

Nutritional Information

The nutritional content of Burger King's breakfast sandwiches varies depending on the specific sandwich and ingredients chosen. Generally, these sandwiches are high in calories, fat, and sodium, but also provide a source of protein.
