Leggo my Eggo!

I did it. I found some. At a 7-Eleven really late at night, I found a slightly smashed, obviously old, yellow box of precious precious Eggo Waffles.

They went fast.

And now they are gone.

Kellogg Co. announced last month that due to a flood at the company’s Atlanta plant and repairs at a Tennessee bakery, there would be a nationwide shortage of Eggo Waffles at least until next summer.

So I enjoyed it while I could. Too bad I ran out of syrup.
