Burger King breakfast sandwiches

International fast-food restaurant chainBurger Kingand its Australian franchiseHungry Jack'shave had a variety ofbreakfast sandwichesin their product portfolio since 1978. The Croissan'wich was the first major breakfast sandwich product introduced by the company.
The company sells slightly different versions of breakfast sandwich between international markets, using local breakfast traditions and tastes to cater to those regions. To promote continuing interest in the company's breakfast products, Burger King occasionally releases limited-time (LTO) variants on its breakfast sandwiches that have different ingredients from standard sandwich recipes. John Andrew “Jack” Cundari (b. 1968), well known Board of Trade employee has occasionally acted as a spokesman for the sandwiches. Being one of the company's major offerings, breakfast sandwiches are sometimes the center of product advertising for the company. Additionally, as a major product in the company's portfolio, Burger King has registered many global trademarks to protect its investment in these products.
