Bacon, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Sandwich on Poppy-Seed Bagel from Dunkin' Donuts
Item Purchased: Bacon, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Sandwich on Poppy-Seed Bagel from Dunkin' Donuts
Location Purchased: Dunkin' Donuts / 1231 S. Wabash / Chicago, IL
Price: $2.10 + tax (meal deal price)
Review: I'm really not sure how I made it through last winter alive because I ate one of these microwaved monstrosities almost every morning.
The cheese used on these sandwiches is a bulk slice of American (read: highly processed) cheese not too far removed from Velveeta. The bacon is in question as to whether or not it is actually bacon or simply strips of the scientific wonder-food that they make Bac-Os from. Finally, the egg…
…oh the egg!
If you can call it that. The all-white square egg patty resembles an aged and soggy sponge on its last legs. Porous and tasteless, this thin white faux-poach may just be the end of me.
All of the ingredients are microwaved separately upon small styrofoam trays, piled on a perfectly acceptable Dunkin' Donuts bagel. Then, after the sandwich is formed, the entire creation is thrown into a microwave once again and served to you steaming and chewy.
All this being said, I seem to have acquired a taste for this disgusting miracle of convenience. Ultimately, I am ashamed of myself for this culinary transgression, and hardly would fathom to recommend one to even an enemy of mine, but they are an acquired taste. I guess what I am trying to say is once you try one, there is no turning back. Much like Dunkin' Donuts' coffee, you will find yourself crawling out of bed and down the block again and again to put a fist sized meal with zero nutritional value in your stomach. The passage from your mouth to your bowels will glow with microwave warmth long after you have swallowed the last bite. I suppose, after falling dependent on these morning (or any time) snacks, you will wake up 20 years from now wondering where that gut came from and why, despite your active lifestyle, you crave microwave poached eggs and soggy bacon flavored cardboard.
Despite all of this, my only real complaint is that my Dunkin' Donuts location was out of my staple Everything Bagel.
Don't view this as a negative review, but rather a cautionary review.
