This Hardee's and Carl’s Jr breakfast sandwich is a sweet and savory choice to satisfy morning hunger for those with on-the-go lifestyles. Even with busy lives, it is important for consumers to have a place to grab a quick breakfast that is both filling and affordable.

The 'Cinnamon Swirl French Toast' breakfast sandwich is loaded with folded eggs, melted cheese and savory meat -- sausage, bacon or ham. In addition to its savory ingredients, this meal also features two slices of cinnamon swirl French toast bread and is glazed in a sweet maple sauce.
