Arby’s parent company just bought Dunkin

Back when I was broke a McMuffin was a treat. I could get one with a small coffee for cheap. I'd eat it open face, spreading the strawberry jam on the top half.

Jelly on your breakfast sandwich????? Time to move south of the Mason/Dixon line.

A sweet jelly combined with a savory sausage patty on a biscuit is heavenly. If done correctly.

I am clearly a northerner. The butter and jellied muffin half was eaten independently from egg and meat half.

OK confession time. Back when in 73 when I worked at DD as a teenager, I was mopping the floor and doing the dirty work. The cashiers would have a tip cup, that kept filling up which didn't match the customer activity.

I spotted it, questioned the cashiers and the old ladies told me to mind my business. I then threatened to tell the boss (who makes the donuts) if they didn't explain. What they told me is that donuts were $1.50/dz, they would ring up $1.00 and place 50 cents in the tip jar. Essentially stealing. Being a teen, I kept my mouth shut.

Well a couple of months later, the baker/owner put me on the register. I was around 16 years old. . . . . . .

$0.50 in 1973 is worth $2.93 today

(My soul feels good now)
