Just margarine.

Never seen late night violence or freak shows at any Waffle House and we have been going once a week for probably 35 years. Excellent food.

Totally disagree. Their prices went sky high and not worth it for the garbage they put on your plate.

They have a decent breakfast, but I haven't had lunch there. If you like butter and powdered sugar on your waffles, you had better bring your own powdered sugar as they don't have it.

Just because a business isn't requested, doesn't mean that it can't be built. There are lots of "dirty old men" in and around the Villages who appreciate a good set of headlights.

I stopped in for a meal at a Waffle House many years ago. I sat down at the counter and looked at the cook's area. It was so filthy that I got up and walked back out. I've considered giving them a second chance.

We plan to check it out. Why not? Outside patio, good wings, good price. Something different from FMK.

Waffle house used to be great Their breakfast burrito and coffee was the best for like $7. However, that was like 20 years ago, when I was travelling and working in the construction / service industry. Now, they don't even offer it.

WH is great for a quick breakfast meal on the road, anytime of day, that's it, when there is no other alternative.

Well GG the “Exotic Food” such as gator, ostrich, rattlesnake, rarely has been on shelves in a grocery isle.

However, yes Trader Joe’s like Any Grocery has “Ethnic Sections” ya know Spanish, Asian, Indian, and so on, that you may be confusing with “Exotic” food.

While Costco clients may shop at Trader Joe’s, one is warehouse shopping, where TJ’s carries more organic, and Kosher than most grocery. None of which is considered “Exotic”

People obviously want it or it would not be built.

If you do not want to go, then do not go. Pretending no one wants it built because you do not is just silly.

I do not get the hype, but a lot of people do love it

I'd trade five nearby Aldi's for a Trader Joes.

Seems to me the Sumter Landing location was ideal.
I guess it had too much parking to meet their modus operandi.
