It’s National Pancake Day at IHOP

Today is the day IHOP celebrates National Pancake Day and you can get a free short stack at any of their locations. All they ask is that you donate whatever you can to various children’s hospitals. This is the 15th year they’ve done it, and the deal runs until 7:00 p.m. When you’re at the restaurant you can also sign up for a chance to win free pancakes for life. With that in mind, a new study asked people what the “perfect” flapjack looks like. The average answer was “golden brown,” about six inches in diameter, and only 0.15 inches thick.
