Whole wheat pancakes?????

Ok, I'm somewhat of a self-admitted breakfast snob

From time to time IslandPrincess and I like to go out for breakfast. I have never - never - never eaten breakfast anywhere where the place served good pancakes. They are ALL made with white flour and too much sugar.

You'd think, in this day with all the talk about healthy eating that someone would make a good 100% whole wheat pancake, perhaps with blueberries.

Ok, yes, yes, if we really want to be healthy we'd eat oat meal or fruit or something really wholesome like that, but we have these things every day during the week, and on the weekends I make whole wheat blueberry pancakes - we spurge a bit.

Then there's the whole thing about fake "maple" syrup. There are a FEW places that have real maple syrup. We could go on to talk about floppy bacon

(can't we have crisp bacon?)

But back to the main subject - NO one (that I've found) serves whole wheat pancakes.

If you've never had 100% whole wheat pancakes, made with buttermilk, whole wheat flour (NOT whole wheat *white* flour), at least one egg in the mix per 2 [good sized] pancakes, and blueberries, you haven't lived

(just kidding, but really - they are GOOD!) Geesh - I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!!

How much more would it cost to make quality pancakes like that? Maybe 25 or 50 cents more than the other stuff?

If there is such a place that serves 100% whole wheat pancakes, I'd sure like to know about it!!!!
