I used to have no idea what omelettes and milkshakes had to do with Hobbits. Thankfully, Denny’s enlightened me with their Hobbit-inspired menu set to launch November 6. Apparently, Middle-Earth dwellers chillax and sip on Bilbo’s Berry Smoothie while munching on Radagast’s Red Velvet Pancake Puppies. I’m serious — that’s what Denny’s officially named a smoothie and a pancake.

Shucks, and to think, I thought Hobbit’s ate things like rabbit stew and drank home-brewed beer. Silly me. Tricks are indeed, for kids. Of course, this whole Denny’s gone Hobbit dealio might have something to do with Peter Jackson’s upcoming movie The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. What better way to get kids pumped about watching wizards and tiny men run around then feeding them magic food? According to Denny’s, this is how it’s done.

So expect to have your breakfast, lunch and dinner at Denny’s be exactly the same, with the exception of what you actually call them. Expect your coffee to be called Shire Juice and your ketchup to be renamed Smaug Sauce. That was a joke, but Gandalf’s Gobble Melt isn’t. I wish I was kidding.
