I was unaware of the "smell" topic, but it makes sense (they wouldn't want it to overwhelm the coffee). I can see how they have some staying power - pretty low overheard with frozen items. They won't have to assemble, bake, or throw out meat that has been sitting for 20+ minutes. But will anyone miss the made-to-order quality found elsewhere? They say the breakfast market is the fastest growing sector of the day, so maybe there is enough room for everyone at this rate. I agree. Homemade FTW! I’m glad you had a chance to sample them.
