We reported at the end of March how the somewhat-beloved fast-food breakfast chain, Waffle House, was closing many locations due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The chain was still available for take-out orders, depending on the location, but to make all our lives a bit more pleasant, at least when it comes to breakfast, they moved to sell their own waffle mix online as well. Unfortunately, it sold out quickly, and even went viral in the process. The company revealed on Wednesday that the limited time-only brand name waffle mix had already sold out four short...
