As a former McDonald’s and Burger King employee I assure you that Burger King doesn’t have the ~~fake~~ totally real liquid egg you’re looking for. Both companies’ “eggs” are premade into the shapes you see and simply reheated; nobody’s cracking eggs in the kitchen.
But also, both companies are crazy unethical and cause unnecessary animal suffering so I’d recommend not frequenting either.
McDonald’s absolutely cracks eggs for the McMuffin.
For the scrambled egg they use liquid egg and cook it on the griddle. And the folded egg comes precooked and just reheated on the griddle.
Burger King doesn’t have griddles so they get it precooked and frozen.
I worked for them in the US for 10 years more recently then you looks like. They used to do cracked eggs, but I was there when they converted. Now they're just frozen eggs in that shape that are steamed. Same as their "folded" egg this is called "round" egg. Looks exactly the same.
At least I didn't have to wash those horrible circle things anymore
Why are the circle things so impossible to clean
Never said impossible, there were difficult. Each egg had its own container, the device could do 8 at a time if I remember. Each one takes probably a full minute to scrape off all of the egg particles, and then you'd still have to scrub, rinse, and sanitize. That's in addition the the hundred or so other dishes you have to do, and with the eggs needing to be cleaned between each use it would take significant amounts of time. Breakfast dishes was about a 2-2.5 hour task each morning, and those egg dishes were probably 45ish mminutes of that.
Ah right; I forgot to clarify I was using the "colloquial hyperbolic impossible", not the "literal cannot be physically done in this realm of existence impossible". I thought it would be clear from the "so impossible" qualifier, since there is no literal scale of impossibility; it is a binary state. Apologies for the confusion.
Yes I picked up on it, but to err on the side of caution I assumed you were being nice and answered honestly.
I’m in the US, where are you? They definitely do not crack eggs for the McMuffin, the eggs come wrapped and shaped already.
Colorado. They were doing it 20 years ago when I worked there and they still do it today.
The round egg on the McMuffin is fresh cracked. The folded egg is precooked and frozen.
Burger King used to have griddles. Worked it myself, long ago. Even served a breakfast platter of scrambled eggs and bacon, and making the eggs for the sandwiches was an art form to get it perfect. Probably when they went downhill in the 2000s they got rid of all that stuff. Just like when Pizza Hut went from actually mixing pan dough to frozen. Damn, that stuff was good.
