Breakfast has several consumer needs to meet ranging from being appealing, delicious and nutritious to being quick and easy to eat.

Consumers are becoming more interested in breakfast meats and sandwiches – either eaten at home or on the go.

If you've eaten at a restaurant this year, you're familiar with the diversity of sausage offerings, whether a turkey sausage breakfast sandwich, modern peasant fare of homemade sausage, mustard, potato dumpling and kraut at a trendy restaurant, or just a straightforward bratwurst at a baseball game or cookout.
