Does Illinois’ Favorite Fast Food Breakfast Surprise You?

In a land where liberty and fast food reign supreme, it's no surprise that America has developed an undying love for the most important meal of the day: breakfast.

And when it comes to quick morning bites, one name stands out above the rest—McDonald's.

With a staggering 30 states swearing their allegiance to the golden arches, it's safe to say that Ronald McDonald is the real breakfast champion.

McDonald's may rule the majority of the United States with an iron spatula, but Chick-fil-A has managed to steal the hearts and stomachs of 13 states, a handful in the South and into the east coast.

There's something about those crispy chicken biscuits that speaks to the Southern soul, I guess?

The Big Mac takes the crown, followed closely by the Happy Meal and the McChicken. It seems that the Land of Lincoln prefers to have their burgers and chicken in the morning. Who needs eggs and bacon anyway, right?

Americans don't like spending a lot on breakfast, it seems

Did you know that a staggering 55% of Americans regularly skip breakfast? It's a tragedy of epic proportions. But fear not, for there is hope. 10% of Americans choose to indulge in breakfast on the go.

These brave souls spend between $5 to $10 each time, satisfying their cravings with a warm, greasy embrace that only fast food can provide.

Are we losing our love for coffee?

Now, let's not forget about that precious liquid gold that fuels our mornings—coffee. America's favorite breakfast companion has always been the trusty filtered coffee.

However, in a shocking twist, it seems that filtered coffee is losing popularity. Are we witnessing the rise of tea? Or perhaps the advent of exotic, artisanal blends? Only time will tell
