Dark days are coming for at-home American breakfasts.

Eggo waffles, a pillar of the frozen breakfast-food market, are disappearing from store shelves. That’s because a summer flood at Kellogg’s Atlanta factory and equipment problems at a Rossville, Tenn., plant have hampered production of the popular Eggo. And the shortage may last a while.

“Unfortunately, this is taking longer than anticipated,” Kellogg said in a statement on its website. “Eggo is working around the clock to bring everyone’s favorite waffles back to store shelves as quickly as possible. We hope to regain full distribution of Eggo products by the middle of 2010.”

Seven months of Eggo rationing? That’s a huge blow for frozen-waffle lovers, since Eggos command 73 percent of the market.
