I used to love their food but when I retired I started eating healthy to lose weight and lower my cholesterol. After two years of not eating bacon or anything fried the greasy food didn’t taste as good anymore. I love gravy and biscuits, country ham, and all the good southern food but I can’t deal with the grease anymore. I love cheesy eggs BTW but can’t eat them anymore either. Denny’s affects me the same way. If I eat at either one of those I taste grease for 24 hours after eating.
As a fire inspector, I once responded to a fire crew complaint at a local Waffle House of grease pouring out of the roof rain spouts onto the ground. We went up on the roof and found a huge puddle of grease surrounding the hood vent. The roof was so squishy from being saturated from grease, we couldn't get with five feet of the vent. Certain death for a firefighter going up on the roof in a a fire.
