Is McDonald’s bagel breakfast sandwich good?
A former McDonald’s business manager has gone viral on TikTok after sharing another hack: this one focused on one of the food chain’s iconic breakfast sandwiches.
Mike Haracz (@chefmikeharacz), a former McDonald’s business manager, has garnered many followers on TikTok for discussing all things related to the chain. In a recent video, which he posted on June 5, Haracz explained how to make McDonald’s breakfast bagel sandwich even better. As of Sunday evening, his video had garnered more than 76,000 views.
“I’ve heard other people have had success,” he said, “but that’s what you’re going to want to do.”
What is the breakfast bagel sandwich trick?
According to Haracz, customers should start by ordering the breakfast bagel sandwiches “which are found in many restaurants.” (The Daily Dot previously reported that the chain brought the sandwich back to select locations in November 2022.)
Although the sandwich is good as is, Haracz conceded, he said it could be improved. The problem with the sandwich, he said, is McDonald’s egg selection.
“This egg? Hot garbage,” he said of the one used on the bagel sandwich. “It’s their pre-frozen folded egg.” Haracz said McDonald’s only grills or microwaves this particular egg. “This is the worst egg McDonald’s has in the restaurant out of all the egg options you could have,” he added.
Instead of getting the sandwich as is, Haracz suggested customers ask McDonald’s employees to swap the “hot trash” folded egg for the scrambled eggs pictured in his Big Breakfast meal. Those eggs, Haracz said, are cooked at the restaurant.
“It’s (a) liquid egg product that they cook and preserve, but it’s tastier,” he said. “It’s more tender.”
Haracz said when customers substitute that egg for their bagel sandwich, the meal becomes much better.
“It’s far superior,” he added. He asked customers to try hacking and let him know their thoughts.
What do McDonald’s customers think of this hack?
In the comments section of the Haracz video, a few customers said they tried the hack and liked the results.
“I did it, they had no problem doing it,” one user said. “It was amazing! No extra either.”
“I did this in Fort Worth, Texas and it’s the best,” agreed another.
“It works and it’s fantastic,” said a third commenter.
Other McDonald’s customers, meanwhile, said they prefer the chain’s round egg on their sandwiches.
“I do this but with the round egg McMuffin,” one viewer wrote.
“I always asked them to replace the round egg for years,” admitted another.
“The round egg is far superior!!!” a third commenter agreed.
And then there were a handful of customers who thought the bagel sandwich was good as is.

“I actually prefer pre-folded frozen eggs,” one man wrote.
“I actually love the folded egg,” echoed another.
