Each "Eggstraordinary" Pancake provides 6 grams of protein or 15 percent of the U.S. Recommended Daily Allowance.

Protein is an essential part of the nutritious diet, but protein goods are often the most expensive items on our grocery list. Fortunately for cost-conscious consumers, the protein supplied by eggs is both high in quality and low in cost.

Protein is required by our bodies for growth, tissue formation and repair. Since protein cannot be stored in the body, it should be consumed daily. Enjoy two Iowa eggs at your next meal and receive 12 grams of protein for less than 16 cents!
