CNN reported this week that:
“Kellogg is rationing its Eggo products due to flooding and equipment problems at two bakeries. The shortfall could last through mid-2010.”

The story goes on to report that people are worried their favorite morning snack won’t be available due to shortages, so they’re stocking their freezers full of these processed breakfast “foods.”
Here’s what you’ll find in the Eggo Fibre Waffles:
“Water, wheat flour, whole wheat flour, soybean, palm and palm kernel oil shortening, wheat bran cereal (wheat bran, sugar, salt, malt [corn flour, malted barley], thiamin hydrochloride, pyridoxine hydrochloride, folic acid, d-calcium pantothenate), sugar, oat bran, rice bran, baking powder, dried egg white (contains sodium lauryl sulphate), salt, modified milk ingredients, soy lecithin.”
That’s 25 ingredients. 3 bad fats, 3 sugars and a bunch of stuff that you DON’T NEED IN YOUR BODY!
Here’s a great alternative to these processed, refined NON-FOODS:
Make your own waffles, and freeze them for later!
All you need is a good, healthy waffle recipe.
Freeze the uneaten waffles in an air-tight container or freezer bag with sheets of parchment paper in between each layer. Next time you want a quick waffle breakfast just take one out of the bag and pop it in the waffle maker! It’s so easy!
