It is fatty and salty. Sure you can eat it, but delicious?

Fatty and salty... throw a bunch of sugar in there and what more could you want from a meal?

Except when I was younger, And didn't drink, we just went to drink endless coffee until close to daylight, I always got either an All-star breakfast or Texas cheese steak. Got hash browns different every time. Haven't been to an awful waffle in over a yr now, and now I'm sad.

Are fatty and salty not traits if typically delicious foods? If fatty food didn’t taste good I don’t think we would have an obesity epidemic in the US

Seriously, we could argue about healthy but salt and fat are part of making food actually taste good lol.

“Fat makes you fat” is a disinformation campaign run by the sugar council for decades now. It is sugar; it has always been sugar. “Low fat” food doesn’t do shit for your weight control. Cut carbs (sugars).

The sugar people literally went to the same ad agencies that tobacco companies used, and paid them to put a hit on Fat to take the blame for sugar.

When I said “fatty foods” I was referring to the fried hash browns, bacon, pancakes etc that are sold at Waffle House. Certainly these types of food are contributing factors to the obesity epidemic.

Just be careful not to escalate to Golden Corral or CPS might get involved

IHOP and crack house certainly but road house? Not until they start serving alcohol.

fair enough, they don't serve booze (yet)

but i also really only ever went hammered with my hammered friends and i had the distinct impression everybody was drunk or on something

I’ve always said that anyone who has been to Waffle House has a Waffle House story. It’s a great ice breaker conversation to have. Lots of wild events happen at Waffle House.
