McDonald's giving thanks to educators with free breakfast
McDonald's gave away 12 million free Thank You Meals to first responders, health care workers in 2020
Jack Hartung, Chipotle's CFO, announces Chipotle's newest meaty addition of brisket to the menu. Jack also joins 'Cavuto: Coast to Coast' to discuss the rising prices of the menu to offset labor costs and Chipotle's core crowd.
McDonald's will show its gratitude to educators nationwide next week with free breakfast as part of its Thank You Meal program.

According to the fast-food chain, teachers, administrators and school staff who show a valid work ID at their local participating McDonald's during breakfast hours from Oct. 11-15 will receive the free Thank You Meal served in a classic Happy Meal box.
Educators can choose between an Egg McMuffin; bacon, egg and cheese biscuit; or a sausage biscuit with a medium McCafé hot or iced coffee or a medium soft drink. The breakfast sandwiches will come with a side of hash browns. The promotion limits orders to one person per day, and menu options may vary by restaurant.
