Ever since I ate those unsatisfying pancakes at Cracker Barrel the other day, I’ve been wanting some pancakes with substance and character. I don’t know if you can say IHOP’s pancakes have character(when I make my famous Starbucks coffee pancakes at home you can tell they ooze with character), they have substance. And lots of it. I’ve had the short stack with eggs, hash browns, bacon, etc., I figured, «What’s a couple more pancakes?» There’s a reason a full stack is offered by its lonesome. That’s on the outermost limits of a human’s capacity. I was also sure to down three cups of coffee with three sugar packs each to counter the inevitable pancake coma. I don’t know if I’ll overcome it with only three cups. If I wake up disoriented, I’ll know that I slipped into sweet pancake bliss. The tremors from the sugar crash are another issue altogether.
