Ranking Fast Food Breakfast Sandwiches From Worst To Best
NEWS

Subway
The steak, egg, and cheese melt at Subway has a few issues, starting with the often-overcooked steak. It's the domino that makes all else tumble to the ground.
The eggs are mostly pre-cooked slabs that lack much flavor, though the American cheese melts well. If you opt for the Sriracha topping, it can also get a bit too overwhelming.
Sonic
Sonic's sausage breakfast toaster is basically a breakfast-enhanced grilled cheese with two slices of Texas toast-style white bread. It has a spongy bite without much flavor.
It also lacks a buttery flavor. While the egg and cheese on the inside work well, the sausage patty ruins it with its artificial smokiness and excessive salt.
Starbucks
The double-smoked bacon, cheddar, and egg sandwich at Starbucks isn't a bad pick. It's essentially a croissant flattened into a roundish shape to accommodate the egg.
Its bacon is thin but not brittle, and it tastes sufficiently bacon-y, while the cheddar ties everything together. Despite its prepackaged nature, it supplements your coffee well.
Taco Bell
The sausage Crunchwrap at Taco Bell combines a breakfast sandwich with a breakfast burrito. It additionally packs the flavor of hash browns, sausage, cheese, and eggs.
Its crispy tortilla secures the innards in place, while the hash brown serves a hearty, golden brown crunch. The egg, however, doesn't have too much flavor on its own.
Wendy's
Wendy's sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast combines tasty sausage devoid of a lot of artificial smokiness, nicely melting cheese, and a fluffy and flavorful egg.
The breakfast sandwich struggles a bit in the muffin area. It's not a bad-tasting English muffin, but it's a bit dense, which results in a texture that leans stodgy.
