McDonald's is adding three new breakfast sandwiches to the menu, according to internal documents shared with Business Insider.
The "Triple Breakfast Stacks" are McMuffins, McGriddles, or biscuits that contain two sausage patties each, plus bacon slices.
The new breakfast sandwiches will hit menus in November.
On Tuesday, McDonald's executives said the chain planned to expand its breakfast menu for the first time in more than a decade as the battle for breakfast customers heats up.
McDonald's new breakfast menu items are tripling down on meat.
The fast-food chain is adding three "Triple Breakfast Stacks" to the menu, according to internal documents shared with Business Insider.
The sandwiches are essentially revamped versions of the biscuit, McMuffin, and McGriddle, with three times as much meat as the typical breakfast sandwich. Each will contain two sausage patties in addition to bacon.
McDonald's Triple Breakfast Stacks will hit menus in November and set to be available for a limited time.

The internal document predicts that the Triple Breakfast Stacks will be a "popular choice for meat lovers and people looking to grab a hearty breakfast on the go!"
The fast-food chain alluded to its plans to add new breakfast options to the menu in the fourth quater during a call with analysts on Tuesday.
"We haven't had much new food news at breakfast for a little while," CEO Steve Easterbrook said on the call.
McDonald's last major breakfast menu revamp came roughly 15 years ago, when McDonald's rolled out the McGriddle nationally. Since then, other fast-food rivals have debuted breakfast menus and new options of their own, cutting into McDonald's dominance of the breakfast market.
"We're still losing a little share," Easterbrook said on the call. "It's very competitive out there at breakfast."
The Triple Breakfast Stacks represent McDonald's attempt to reclaim its breakfast dominance. The chain has also recently rolled out a number of new breakfast deals, including $1 Sausage McMuffins and the Sausage Biscuits.

Coronavirus: 'The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing'

"The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing," says Andrew O'Dwyer, who is recovering after being infected with the new coronavirus following a skiing trip to Italy in late February. "I've had worse flu, without a doubt - but I wouldn't want to catch it again," he says during his self-isolation at home in south-west London. Despite having type 1 diabetes, Andrew says having the virus "isn't anything to worry about for me personally". He adds that the fever he experienced is "no different to normal flu-type symptoms". "I've not been concerned," he says. The severity of symptoms can vary widely among people. Those who are older and have pre-existing medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease) are more likely to become severely ill and can need hospital treatment. There have been 10 coronavirus-related deaths so far in the UK. Andrew was told the virus wasn't circulating in the resort ...

Babajide made a Stunning Revelation about the Forthcoming Governorship Election in Edo State

Babajide a veteran journalist, while speaking on the popular program “Journalist Hangout” on TVC news Friday August 7, made a stunning revelation about the forthcoming governorship election in Edo state, says all political parties should shown violence because election is not a do or die affair. Babajide while reacting said “ I have to say I have my fears about these forthcoming election, and I hope my fears does not come past. As we can see the shenanigans in Edo state it is now visible that it is no more Oshiomole against Obaseki, it is now PDP against APC which could be devastating in the light of the politics going on now. Obaseki himself divided the APC, because all the lawmakers in Edo state belong to the APC but he divided them by inaugurating some lawmakers, and refusing to inaugurate others. Right now as it stands 17 lawmakers have decided to align with the APC and just 7 lawmakers is with the Governor. For me I think Obaseki should have averted these problem by just issuing a...

THE MASCARENE PARROT

The Mascarene parrot was 35 cm (14 in) in length with a large red bill and long, rounded tail feathers. Its legs were red, and it had naked red skin around the eyes and nostrils. It had a black facial mask and partially white tail feathers, but the colouration of the body, wings and head is unclear. Descriptions from life indicate the body and head were ash grey, and the white part of the tail had two dark central feathers. In contrast, descriptions based on stuffed specimens state that the body was brown and the head bluish but do not mention the dark central tail feathers. This may be due to the specimens having changed colour as a result of aging and exposure to light, as well as other forms of damage. Very little is known about the bird in life. The Mascarene parrot was first mentioned in 1674, and live specimens were later brought to Europe, where they lived in captivity . The species was scientifically described in 1771. Only two stuffed specimens exist today, in Paris and Vienn...
