When McDonald's introduced its egg white delight McMuffin in 2013, it was viewed as a healthier alternative to the regular McMuffin.
But one employee was less than impressed.
"The egg white delight is just as unhealthy, if not more so, than the regular round eggs," a McDonald's employee wrote on a 2014 Reddit. "The amount of butter — at least in my store — sprayed on the grill must up the calorie and fat count like crazy."
The employee went on to recommend that customers order their breakfast sandwiches with a "round egg." If you don't specify, you'll receive a sandwich with a folded egg patty.
"At least the round egg is the real deal," the employee wrote.
According to McDonald's official website, the yolk-free version of the McMuffin has 280 calories — 20 calories less than its yolky counterpart.
