"Ranking the 10 Unhealthiest Breakfast Items to Avoid Starting Your Day With"

Pancakes at breakfast chains can be unhealthy due to factors such as refined flour, added sugars, unhealthy fats, large portion sizes, and high-calorie toppings. Registered dietitians and nutrition experts have ranked the unhealthiest pancake orders at major breakfast chains, including Huddle House, IHOP, Original Pancake House Utah, Marie Callender's, Perkins, Village Inn, First Watch, Cracker Barrel, Denny's, and Bob Evans. These orders can contain excessive calories, fat, and added sugar, contributing to health issues like obesity and diabetes.
