An Appreciation
 by Fëanor

Vis Major told me Dunkin' Donuts' new waffle breakfast sandwich was good, and it turns out she was right. It's bacon, egg, and cheese on two small, round waffles infused with syrup, a la the McGriddle. It's tasty! I give it a two thumbs up recommendation. It might even be better than the McGriddle, actually.

I'm kind of surprised Vis Major tried it, though. It seems a little weird for her tastes, she being so resistant to the McNuggetini and all.

It struck me the other day why people say it "bacon, egg, and cheese" rather than, for instance, "egg, cheese, and bacon" or "cheese, bacon, and egg." It's because "bacon, egg, and cheese" has a pleasing pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables, which no other combination of the words has.
