Good morning, Brew Daily Show. I'm Neil Freiman. And I'm Toby Howell. Today, like anyone who's ever tried to change their flight over the phone, the trade war is on hold.
Then, should the U.S. start a sovereign wealth fund? President Trump seems to think so. It's Tuesday, February 4th. Let's ride. Good morning, I hope everyone is having an egg-cellent Tuesday. I have some bad news for anyone on a road trip through the south right now.
Waffle House is adding a 50 cent per egg surcharge across its 2,000 locations as the chain deals with increased egg costs associated with ongoing shortages linked to bird flu. That means your classic all-star breakfast combo that comes with a waffle, bacon, sausage, or ham, hash browns, and two eggs, any style, will set you back an extra buck.
Neil, are you paying extra for a little yolk action, or is this something that would make you go egg-free?
Looks like we're going to have to start ordering waffles from Waffle House. This almost feels like Costco increasing its hot dog and soda combo from $1.50. The Waffle House's affordable meals are one of the few things holding our society together. The fact that it's putting a $0.50 surcharge on every egg, I think, indicates a crisis. But to answer your question, I think I'm not ordering eggs.
I already thought ordering eggs out for breakfast or brunch was a complete ripoff as it is. So as with prices going up, I think I'm opting for pancakes or waffles. I actually like that take a lot.
