Egg McMuffin Tribute

The creator of the Egg McMuffin died last week, and we at WTN would be remiss if we went another day go by without an appropriate tribute.

My fellow blogger Gail Gedan Spencer suggested a sort-of gross and really long clip that involved a McMuffin eating contest -- ironic, considering she blogs for "The Skinny" -- but I decided to strike out on my McOwn and found these Egg McMuffin-related clips.

This circa-1970s commercial features a jingle that will stay in your head for days:

And you can say pretty much the same thing for this Australian McMuffin commercial. Did someone say bacon?

Finally, an amateur McMuffin commercial. You can tell it's an amateur clip because at one point a McGriddle sandwich flashes on the screen instead of the McMuffin, and a pro just simply wouldn't make that mistake.
