Blaine Hein

Blaine Hein, a 34-year-old construction worker, switched to Starbucks Corp.'s bacon-and-egg English muffins for breakfast from Jack in the Box Inc. egg biscuits after the coffeehouse chain started selling its first oven-heated foods in October.

"I come here every morning for the food," said Hein, at a Starbucks near downtown Seattle.
