This nationwide chain, which is known for it’s big bargain

breakfasts, serves an impressive number of non-breakfast

items as well. In 1997, I.H.O.P. dished out over 6 million

pounds of french fries and over half a million gallons of

soft drinks. But it’s the Country Griddle Cakes on the breakfast

menu that inspired this Top Secret Recipe. The unique flavor

and texture of this clone comes from the Cream of Wheat in the

batter. Now you can have your pancakes, and eat your cereal too.
