Batter Blaster!!

Pancakes in a can??? No way! Carrie and I came across this little gem at Kroger in the egg aisle (yes there is actually an egg aisle) when this hippie-type dude introduced us to the miracle breakfast item of the 21st Century. If you haven't seen or tasted Batter Blaster yet, please go to your nearest place of grocery and purchase it. We agree that it is a little awkward at first squirting a hotcake from a can, but you won't be disappointed when it takes you 2 minutes from squirt of batter to eating of flapjack (and you definitely will be pleased with the minimal cleanup).

Plus, they are organic and a fair amount healthier than Bisquick pancakes (though nutritional concerns pretty much go out the window when a 1/2 stick of butter and a quart of Aunt Jemima's syrupy goodness hits your stack of flapjackcakes).

Ok, so they probably aren’t quite as good as your grandmother’s pancakes (no one cooks as good as my Nonny, especially not from a can) though they are rather tasty, and you literally take the can out of the refrigerator, turn your stovetop on, spray some cooking oil on a pan, squirt in the batter from the blaster, turn the pancakes over in a few minutes, then eat them. That’s it. If you aren’t completely vexed and humbled by this little guy, Carrie will knit you a brand new pair of Scooby-Doo underwear. Wow!
