Vernon Hills Dunkin' to Debut Glazed Donut Breakfast Sandwich Friday

Written by Editor Steven Jack 

Paula Deen probably wasn’t the first person in the world to think of replacing a bun with two donuts in her heart-attack inducing Lady’s Brunch Burger. 

But now it seems as if Dunkin’ Donuts is getting in on the act. According to a report in the Chicago Tribune, the donut and coffee chain with thousands of worldwide locations will introduce the Glazed Donut Breakfast Sandwich Friday.

Weighing in at 360 calories, the sandwich will include two glazed donuts enveloping a fried egg and bacon. By comparison, that’s only 60 more calories than the McDonald’s Egg McMuffin. 

"We want to help guests discover their love of combining sweet and savory, and I think the Glazed Donut Breakfast Sandwich is a great way to do that,” said a company executive on the Dunkin’ website. 

So much for a healthy way to start your day! 

Order the sandwich starting Friday at the Vernon Hills Dunkin' Donuts at 700 N. Milwaukee Ave.

And don't forget, June 7 is National Donut Day. Get a FREE donut at Dunkin' Donuts with any beverage purchase.
