Breakfast was already one of our favorite meals of the day (up until now, it's just been tied with every other meal of the day), but now Carl's Jr., Hardee's, and Auntie Anne's might have just teamed up to make our morning meal the winner by a landslide.
A new partnership between the popular fast-food chains and the pretzel retailer has brought us quite possibly one of the best breakfast sandwiches we've ever seen. Not only does the new sandwich jazz up the traditional egg, cheese, and sausage combo with two—count 'em, two—kinds of cheese (American and Swiss), but it's also served on the bun of our breakfast dreams: a warm, buttery Auntie Anne's soft-pretzel roll.
This isn't the first collaboration for Auntie Anne's, which has teamed up with other big name brands like Arby's—remember cheddar pretzel nuggets?—and Schlotzsky's in the past. But the pretzel breakfast sandwich, which is available at participating locations for $2.99 or $4.69 when ordered as part of a combo with hash browns and a drink, might make this partnership the best yet.
"We are thrilled to be partnering with Carl's Jr. and Hardee's on such a deliciously satisfying, yet unexpected breakfast item," Heather Neary, president of Auntie Anne's, said in a statement. "This partnership is a tremendous opportunity for us to delight our passionate fans in a fresh way."
It's a tremendous opportunity for us, too, Heather; a tremendous opportunity for us to gorge on soft pretzels for breakfast.
