So, reading someone's post today and they were talking about taking their kids to the Waffle House. So reminds me of my favorite place, if you have never been to the Waffle House, YOU ARE MISSING OUT! I love that place. Freddie and I go ALOT. Maybe once a week or every two weeks. My favorite is the bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich. Bacon: EXTRA crispy and hashbrowns (not all of that stuff above...I just like them "scattered low"...which is a new term for me that my waitress told me last time I was there, means extra crispy!!!!)So I googled Waffle House and they have some fun facts:
- If you lay all of the Bryan bacon end-to-end that Waffle House serves in a year, it will stretch from Atlanta to Los Angeles seven times! (That's more than 21,000 miles of bacon)
- If you could stack all of the sausage patties we serve in one day, it would reach the TOP of the Empire State Building! (Did you want grits with that?)
- Waffle House serves more than 3.2 million pounds of grits each year. That is enough to fill 86 semi-trucks!
- Each year Waffle House customers eat more than 334,000 pounds of pecans in their waffles. That is more than 21 million pecans.
- Waffle House customers consume two percent of the total eggs produced in the United States for foodservice use. That is more than 185,000,000 eggs every year, 500,000 eggs everyday, 20,833 eggs every hour, 347 eggs every minute and five eggs every second.
- If you used all of the eggs Waffle House serves in a year to make a cheese omelet, it would weigh 28 tons and would need 185 million slices of cheese. (Do you want hashbrowns with that?)
- If you lined up all the bowls of Bert's Chili® Waffle House serves in a year, it would stretch the length of Florida's coastline on both the Atlantic and the Gulf coasts!
- Waffle House serves more than 10,000 T-bone steaks every day.
- If you stack all of the USDA Choice hamburger patties Waffle House serves in a year, it would equal the height of 18 Mount Everests!
- Waffle House serves more than 381 tons of country ham every year. That translates to more weight than a fully-loaded Boeing 747 at takeoff.
And P.S. I LUV ME SOME GRITS; however, theirs suck...don't order them!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! The fact that you eat at waffle house cracks me up (I mean I totally understand a 2 am trip - but they don't have french fries?) But then the facts -Dude that's a LOT of fried CRAP!
ReplyDeleteYou are a wealth of knowledge! I LOVE IT!

ReplyDeleteWhat a great web log. I spend hours on the net reading blogs, about tons of various subjects. I have to first of all give praise to whoever created your theme and second of all to you for writing what i can only describe as an fabulous article. I honestly believe there is a skill to writing articles that only very few posses and honestly you got it. The combining of demonstrative and upper-class content is by all odds super rare with the astronomic amount of blogs on the cyberspace.
