[CH] Case de Waffle, huh?

This morning I had the pleasure of a breakfast in a Waffle House restaurant
across the parking lot from my hotel. I thought I would actually eat some
food before heading off to train again. Unfortunately the chef ignored my
order when it was called, and disappeared instead. My server actually went
outside to see if he had left. He came back after a few minutes, saying "I
heard you call me four times in the bathroom."
So, I had some time to read anyting within grasp, and I found a caddy with
various condiments. Among them was, I kid you not, Casa de Waffle, a
private-label picante sauce (medium version). I tried some with my eggs and
hash browns, but it had too much vinegar and sugar for that application. It
might grill well on to chicken or shrimp. When products like the Pace line
are called "rich" or "chunky" this might be the baseline they compare
themselves against.
In contrast, in yesterday's wanderings, I got a jar of peach salsa from
Johnson's Peaches of Candor NC, and I like it. This is the first
peach/tomato salsa I've tried, and now I understand the appeal.
