McDonald's first served breakfast on its menu in 1970, with doughnuts and sweets as the first item on the menu. Breakfast bagels were introduced later and were well-received by the majority of the chain's customers. Bagels have previously returned to the menu, but only in limited quantities. So, for some fans who have been desperate for the return of their favorite McDonald's breakfast, the latest return may seem like a sign of hope.
