So what are waffles?

[MplsSteve]

“Went there last week and was unpleasantly surprised at how much their prices have increased.”

Agreed.

[gibsonguy]

My vote is boneheads because so many will first secretly think it means blacks.

[BBell]

That meme is around 20 years old and it still makes me laugh.

[mewzilla]

International House of Bankruptcy.

You heard it here first.

IHOb

Maybe they're going to compete with Hooters in the morning market?

[trad_anglican]

Their food will still suck, no matter what they call themselves.

[onedoug]

Bums?

[LukeL]

You mean Eileen?

[Dr. Sivana]

Maybe they are finally getting WIFI locations, and the “b” is for bandwidth.

[BBell]

Breads, meats, potatoes, cheeses and ales? I could live on that.

[Yaelle]

Well, if waffles are also unwanted by the PC Food Police, you will get a restaurant called Chicken and Stuff. Or Morning House. Where they replace the boardroom-determined offensive word.

If Jesse Jackson were waiting tables, it could be “Bodily fluids”.

What’s the deal about pancakes? I don’t get it.

And why did International House of Pancakes decide to become IHOP and downplay the “international” part? What about Swedish pancakes and blintzes? Too ethnic?

[GOYAKLA]

B, is for biscuits! ;^}

[Red Badger]

I Hop For Pancakes!.................

[Sgt_Schultze]

uuuuhhhhhhh.

[WKUHilltopper]

International House of Blah.

[KosmicKitty]

The b is an upside down p. If you flip a p, like you flip a pancake, you get a b.

Isn’t that obvious, or is it just me?
