Why McDonald's All Day Breakfast won't come to the UK
If there was one thing all McDonald's aficionados hoped and dreamed for, it would be a world in which they could roll out of the bed at any hour of the day and grab themselves a Bacon and Egg McMuffin.
Well, that dream became a reality on Tuesday, as McDonald's finally launched their All Day Breakfast.
Dear #McDonalds, thank you for making me so happy this morning, this afternoon, and tonight 💖 #AllDayBreakfast

Those after the fast food's tempting morning menu needn't set their alarms before 10:30am and sprint to the closest McDonald's any longer. The breakfast is here to stay... but only in the US.
#AllDayBreakfast is one of those historical moments that our children will wonder what took so long, like women's suffrage and the Internet.

That's right, All Day Breakfast is not a thing across this side of the pond, despite pretty much all of us wishing it was.
The McDonald's UK Twitter page has been bombarded with hungry hopefuls, all wondering if and when we too will be blessed with bacon rolls and hash browns around the clock.
Hello @McDonaldsUK are you doing #AllDayBreakfast like the restaurants in the US?

@ MCDONALDS WHY ARE YOU NOT STARTING ALL DAY BREAKFAST IN THE UK I SPEND MORE MONEY ON CHEESEBURGERS THAN I DO ON CLOTHING

The long and short of it is no, All Day Breakfast will not be gracing the UK.
McDonald's explained the dishes on their breakfast menu are not only cooked slightly differently, but at a different temperature to the items on their main menu too.
And apparently, there isn't enough space in the kitchens to accommodate the cooking and preparation of both the breakfast and main menus at the same time.
@nci1 Unfortunately our UK kitchens don't have space as Breakfast items are cooked at a different temperature to the main menu.

@robjohnpotter Due to UK kitchen capacity we can't cook both Breakfast & main menus at the same time as they need different temperatures.

So that's that then, better get the alarm set for tomorrow morning.
