Note the sign telling me Eggo waffles are out of stock,
when in all actuality they're quite abundant.

I haven't figured out the angle yet, but it's got to be some kind of conspiracy. Who could behind this sinister plot? The waffle coalition? The frozen waffle makers of America? The world may never know...


Interesting. At first, they were actually out of Eggo waffles at my stores.
ReplyDeleteNow they're back, even at Walmart, where they seem to be out of everything.
I did a post on Eggo Waffles at the end of last year and it was sheer murder trying to get hold of a pack!
ReplyDeleteApparently there was a breakout of some bacteria in one of the three or four factories that make the waffles, or something.
that's something for the history books kids!
ReplyDeleteIt was bacteria at 2 plants that caused the shortage. Why would you want to eat that crap anyway...make chemical free waffles at home with fresh ingredients and freeze them yourself!
ReplyDeleteSenorita: Weird. I never saw one store that ran out of them in Northern Colorado.
ReplyDeleteRich: Ah, maybe our region wasn't affected like the East and West coast.
Deco dame: Oh the stories I will be able to tell my grandkids. The falling of the Berlin Wall.. the first black president, and the great Eggo famine of 2009. LOL!
Will: No kidding! In my circle of friends, I'm one of the only ones who own a waffle maker. You just can't beat hot waffles with fresh strawberries on a Sunday morning!!
That's crazy. I haven't noticed it around here. I remember eons ago wanting a Nintendo Game Boy and was informed the reason they were so impossible to get was because there was a fire at the factory or something where most of the Game Boys were made. Totally unrelated.

Ally: Heh.. I remember that too!
ReplyDeleteHow bizarre!
ReplyDeleteI'm on a diet, and now you've made me think about yummy waffles, mmm...
x
That's hilarious...perhaps they intended irony?
ReplyDeleteLOL!
ReplyDeleteStef: DOH!! I'm sorry. I'm on a diet too and am now craving belian waffles! LOL!
ReplyDeleteKitty: Hmmm... you may be on to something. OR... they thought "Let's say there's a shortage, and people will make a run on the stores for some" LOL!
Lil Rascal: I thought it was funny. I'll bet somewhere.. someone.. that really couldn't find any Eggo's was mad though. =^D
