Hey Kellogg, leggo my Eggo!

For the past month, my boyfriend and I have scoured the frozen food aisle at H-E-B for Kellogg's whole wheat blueberry waffles.

Each trip, we cross our fingers that our favorite Eggos will magically appear. Instead, we gaze into a lonely freezer section, scratching our heads as we decide which non-brand waffle to take a chance on.

Wednesday, Kellogg reported there is a nationwide shortage of Eggo frozen waffles. A shortage that might not be made right until the SUMMER!

Interruptions in production at two of the four Eggo plants are to blame, according to the Associated Press.

"The company's Atlanta plant was shut down for an undisclosed period by a September storm that dumped historic amounts of rain in the area. Meanwhile, several production lines at its largest bakery in Rossville, Tenn. are closed indefinitely for repairs, company spokeswoman Kris Charles said in an e-mail," the AP reported.

A loyal Eggo fan, I am not sure what to do about this dilemma. Any substitute recommendations for the best whole wheat waffles?
