    Is a horror show. I ate at one in Gainesville last week.

    I thought it would be like a Denny’s, Perkins, or IHop. Nope. It’s like McDonalds with plates.

    Small menu, nothing remotely healthy on it. Literally nothing enters the building that isn’t ultra processed.

    Yoghurt? Nope.

    Bagel with cream cheese? Nope.

    Berries and granola? Nope.

    How about just a banana? NOPE!! Not a single piece of fruit in the restaurant. (Even McDonald’s has apple slices).

    Maple syrup? Nope, not even for a fee. They don’t even have butter.

    I asked for hard boiled eggs. “We don’t have those”. Yet they have eggs and water and a stove.

    Come to think of it, maybe they don’t even have actual eggs. Just buckets of egg goo.

    Anyway, hard nope on ever entering one again.

    They’ll end up, after a lot of drama, with the same formula they use every time they have a trifecta: take away health care and food assistance from low income families and use the money to fund tax cuts for their donors.

        When our daughter went off to college we scheduled breakfast with her new roommate's parents in a Waffle House in Newport News.

        We walked in together, looked around, looked at each other and left. I don't think we even said anything to each other, we all just went elsewhere for breakfast.

          Their pecan waffles were good in 1973. Last time I ever set foot in one. Andre Agassi always ate breakfast there when he was in Cincinnati, it was his player superstition.

            I've heard strictly awful things about them. I think the last time I was in one was 20 years ago. Passed a lot of them on a recent road trip up to MO.

            Education is extremely important.

                You’re bitching about no yoghurt or hard boiled eggs? FFS, did you even look at the floors? You obviously didn’t look too closely at the cleanliness of the utensils and glasses.

                I am honestly astounded that these places haven’t been shut down by health inspectors.
