Oh How I Miss You

 
I love blueberry waffles (bbw) and blueberry bagels (bbb). My discerning palette has determined that Eggo makes the best waffles and Dunkin Donuts the best bagels. I've tried blueberry baked goods from others but they're never the same. I went through a period of DD saying they "discontinued" the bbb and then we moved and our DD had them, then they stopped. Then the DD by my father-in-law's got new owners and now I have a bbb supplier. What a rollercoaster.

My latest problem is the mystery of the missing blueberry waffles. I would go to the grocery store and check the freezer and 90% of Eggo products are missing. Barren shelves in the freezer case. This morning I finally remembered to Google the missing Eggo products. Well turns out there's a shortage of Eggo products. You can read the article here or listen to me sum it for you. 

Well... what had happened was...Eggo had some factory issues a flooded plant in Atlanta and equipment issues in another plant in Tennessee. Eggo products are not expected back until mid-2010! Like five more months! 

I am trying to figure out if I can get my money back on some Stop and Shop brand blueberry waffles that taste like cardboard. Might have to Google their product satisfaction policy. I just know the waffles smelled delicious but the palette told my brain it tasted like the box my Amazon.com order came in.
