While the UN "strongly encourages" pancakes, IHoP delivers. UN loses. Badly.
I would have to agree

I just had a funnel cake at IHoP.I enjoyed it tremendously. I don't recall anyone from the UN offering me or anyone else I know, a funnel cake with powdered sugar and cinnamon before.

IHoP

don't forget that IHoP also serves lunch and dinner.

optimizing cost control also helped boost IHoP's shares 9.4% since last year, nearly doubling 2nd-quarter profits.

April-June last year: $4.4 million
April-June this year: $11.9 million

that's like 270%.

The UN spends billions trying to feed people, fails, and then spends billions investigating why, and who's at fault. The UN should appropriate those billions to IHoP, who will complete the job more efficiently.

Internat'l House of Pancakes' Productive Emergency Relief.

People go to IHoP and are happy.
People got to the UN and are cranky.

I think IHoP has a better concept of World Peace.

In fairness, I must say that a couple of the dining rooms at the UN serve outstanding food.

Better than IHOP.

But they don't have armed guards and magnatometers (metal detectors) at IHOP either.

Does John Bolton go to IHoP? Because if he does, I'd say that makes it a draw.

Geneva, Switzerland, Woodrow Wilson, but the United States wasn't a member.

Just out of curiosity, what was this thread originally supposed to be about?
