Celebrate National Egg McMuffin Day: Patrons can grab an Egg McMuffin or Sausage McMuffin with Egg breakfast sandwich for just $1, available exclusively through the McDonald’s App on Sunday, March 2.

McDonald's is offering breakfast lovers the chance to get an Egg McMuffin or Sausage McMuffin with Egg on March 2 to mark 50 years since the launch of the famous sandwich.

McDonald's said on Tuesday it would not impose any surcharges when serving eggs as part of its meals and will also launch $1 McMuffins on its app, in a move to attract consumers in the United States.

CHICAGO — Some food chains have announced surcharges to compensate for a nationwide egg shortage, but McDonald’s intends to avoid scrambling its menu. Michael Gonda, the fast food chain’s North American chief impact officer, wrote in a LinkedIn post on Tuesday that no menu items containing eggs will have a surcharge tacked on by the Golden Arches.

McDonald's chief impact officer for North America posted on LinkedIn that the company "definitely won't" be "issuing surcharges on eggs."

The discount arrives as a bird flu crisis pushes U.S. egg prices to record highs.

The fast-food chain refuses to add a surcharge despite soaring prices, offering $1 Egg McMuffins while competitors raise prices.

McDonald's is leaning into its reputation as a breakfast value offering, vowing to reject a surcharge on meals with eggs while announcing a special one-day discount on Egg McMuffins.
