Reddit user u/eventhorizon07 posts about their IHOP experience. The worst nightmare for some customers is to find the perfect meal on a menu, but it has an obnoxious name that you have to say out loud to the waitress and anyone else close by. These decisions are made by chain restaurants like IHOP ’s “Rooty Tooty Fresh N’ Fruity” pancakes and small businesses like Huntington’s Truckin’ Cheesy who named their peanut butter and jelly sandwich (on Texas Toast or glazed Donut) a “Sticky Icky.” Tudors seemed to pull of this fast food trend in a different way, almost making the customers a part of a fan base. So, what was I missing? How long would the wait be? Is the food actually fast? Was the price worth it compared to other fast-food franchises that offer breakfast sandwiches? Is it the biscuits-or does the experience have anything to do with it? I have seen the small and mysterious Tudor’s biscuit World on 20 th St. in Huntington plenty of times. If the drive-thru speakers that blast all the way through the CVS parking lot across the street did not intrigue you, the strong aroma of breakfast would. Natchez, Mississippi has the title of the Biscuit Capitol of the World, but that doesn’t mean West Virginians do not love their biscuits at Tudor’s Biscuit World any less. Bill and Mae Tudor were the creators of the franchise and opened the first Tudors in 1980 on Washington Street in Charleston, West Virginia. The West Virginia-based restaurant is not just limited to the state but has opened in southern Ohio (one being only 30 minutes from my home), eastern Kentucky, and one in Panama City, Florida. ![]() In 2021, West Virginia was listed as the state with the second highest (39.70%) obesity rate-right under Mississippi (40.80%). When I traveled this summer to Mississippi for the first time, there was no denying that the state has some good food, but I didn’t realize that the two states were so similar-that is, with a strong love for biscuits. ![]() Welcome to the Rest of the West (Virginia), a series where Xena Bunton explores the foods, places and things that hold importance to the state of West Virginia.
