You read that right: Waffle House has just announced that they’ll be removing waffles from their menus nation-wide.
Waffle House, which was originally founded in Avondale Estates in Atlanta, GA, made the difficult decision to cut the beloved waffles from their menu after the soaring price of eggs made the batter un-economical to continue making. This comes just after the news of the ‘egg up-charge,’ where Waffle House locations all over the country tacked on an extra 50 cents per egg to combat the rising cost of eggs.
