Sunday, March 2 is National Egg McMuffin Day, celebrating the 50th anniversary of McDonald’s flagship breakfast menu item. The McMuffin was released in 1975, invented by Herb Peterson, who for some reason was looking for a way to put eggs benedict “in the palm of your hand.”1
To celebrate, McDonald’s is offering egg McMuffins and sausage McMuffins for $1, only on March 2 and only if you order through the McDonald’s app. For the rest of March, you can get BOGO McMuffins delivered directly to you via the McDelivery option in the app.
