McDonald's Will Offer All-Day Breakfast Starting Oct. 6, Nation Rejoices

Ding, dong: The 10:30 a.m. cutoff is dead. The Golden Arches beam with more greasy light on this day. McDonald’s has announced that, beginning October 6, it shall offer breakfast items all goddamn day and night at its more than 14,300 U.S. locations.

There are some logistics that different restaurants will have to figure out — by adding equipment, mostly — but The Journal says that they will, at least, initially offer the following: “sausage burritos, hot cakes and, depending on the region, Egg McMuffins or biscuit sandwiches.” Alright, that’s not everything, but we’ll take it. In an interview, my stomach — hungover around noon on a Sunday — was quoted as saying, “Hell yeah.”
