LOS ANGELES – There was muted elation among the Chicken Hen community today. Herb Peterson, inventor of the Egg McMuffin, has died, according to a Southern California McDonald's official. He was 89.
Peterson, who was often referred to as breakfast’s ‘Heinrich Himmler’, rounded up billions of unborn chickens and transported them in train cars to processing ‘camps’ where they were promised showers. Instead, the eggs were broken, forced into a Teflon circle, fried and topped with a slice of cheese and grilled Canadian bacon.
Himmler, err, Peterson coordinated and implemented the killing of approximately six trillion unborn baby chickens, which he deemed unworthy to live, but ‘damned delicious’.
Cy Cluckenstien, spokesman for the Anti-Galliformic League which represents Chickens and Turkeys said that “the Chicken Hen community plans to hold a peaceful (relatively) demonstration during Peterson’s funeral services.
