Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. The year: 1972. The place: Santa Barbara, CA. Herb Peterson and Donald Greadel serve something for the first time. What was it?

Answer: Egg McMuffin

The initial offering of the Egg McMuffin was done without corporate authorization. Although the two were initially threatened with reprimands, by the end of 1972, the breakfast sandwich began appearing on the menu of other McDonald's Restaurants. In the United States, the Egg McMuffin consists of a toasted and buttered English muffin, a slice of Canadian bacon, a fried egg and a slice of cheese. Different varieties are sold all over the world.

2. There's something special about a donut in the morning. Which Donut Shop chain is headquartered in the Boston area?

Answer: Dunkin' Donuts

Founded in 1950, Dunkin' Donuts is headquartered in Canton, MA. Tim Horton's was founded in 1964 and is headquartered in Ontario. Krispy Kreme was founded in 1937 and is headquartered in Winston-Salem, NC. Shipley Do-Nuts was founded in 1936 and is headquartered in Houston, TX.

3. Many people enjoy a bowl of cereal at breakfast. Which one of these cereals is the oldest?

Answer: Grape-Nuts

Grape-Nuts, from Post, debuted in 1897. Corn Flakes, from Kellogg's, debuted in 1907. Wheaties, from General Mills, debuted in 1924. Cheerios (initially called Cheerioats), from General Mills, debuted in 1941.

4. Many people know that orange juice is packed with vitamin C. How many ounces of orange juice do you need to drink to get your full recommended daily allowance of Vitamin C for the day?

Answer: Six ounces

To be more specific, slightly over five and a third ounces of orange juice will give you about 83 mg of Vitamin C, 100% of your recommended daily allowance. Most orange juice is made from sweet oranges. In addition to vitamin C, orange juice also provides significant amounts of thiamine and folate.

Answer: Maine

Maine produces 25% of the blueberries in the US. Wild blueberries are the official state fruit of Maine. Maybe its not surprising that wild blueberry pie is the official state dessert.

6. And now, the omelette course. A popular type of omelette is the Denver or Western Omelette. Which ingredient is not commonly found in Western Omelette?

Answer: Bread

You might have some bread in the form of toast on the side, but the bread wouldn't usually be cooked in the eggs themselves. Diced ham, onions, and green bell peppers are all common ingredients. Some form of cheese is also often added, but there are numerous variations.

7. Alan McMasters invented something in 1893 that has been used for food preparation for many a breakfast. What was it?

Answer: Electric Toaster

McMaster's toaster toasted the bread on one side only and the the operator had to manually flip the bread to the other side. It took a few decades to advance to the sort of toaster with which we are familiar today. In earlier times, a person might hold the bread on a long stick and toast it over a fire.

8. For many people, a cup of coffee is an essential part of breakfast. Which of these nations exports the largest amount of coffee beans?

Answer: Brazil

While all of these nations produce large amounts of coffee beans, Brazil, with 3 million tons, produces about one third of world coffee bean production. Once processed, coffee can appear in literally hundreds of forms and flavors. I must confess that while I don't personally like the taste of coffee, I do enjoy the smell of coffee.

9. Bacon is a popular breakfast food. Since bacon is a pork product, some individuals have health or religious concerns. Which "bacon-like" is not a meatless bacon?

Answer: macon

Macon is made from mutton. Originating in Scotland, macon became common in the United Kingdom during World War Two, because of rationing. Fakon and Vacon are two terms used for vegetarian bacon, which is commonly made with tofu or tempeh.

10. A common food combination is bagels with cream cheese and lox. What type of fish is lox?

Answer: Salmon

The salmon in lox is brined. "Lox" is the Yiddish word for salmon. There are several varieties including Nova Scotia and Scottish-style. Lox is traditionally made from the belly portion of the salmon.
