A few weeks ago, Maddie and I set off on a new adventure to San Jose to meet with the awesome people at Eggo. We are partnering with them to share their new Eggojis. This blog post was sponsored by Eggo, but the opinions are completely my own based on my experience. Having grown up saying #LeggoMyEggo, I of course was thrilled to be able to share this experience with Maddie!
Since we had such a short trip to San Jose, Maddie and I packed in a lot of things.
We checked into our hotel and then went straight to downtown. We both love the high energy of city life, so we soak it in whenever we can. It’s also a rare occasion for us to spend time alone these days. We try to plan some time to be together and catch up, but that doesn’t happen as often as we would like. So we really loved this quick trip.
The next morning we headed to the Eggo Factory and took a tour through their production plant.
I can sum up the factory tour in three words. Smelled So Good! Seriously it smelled like Sunday morning family breakfast from my childhood. Think fresh waffles times 100. I wanted to reach out and eat one, but they are pretty strict on that, so I kept my hands and body far from the food and equipment. Thankfully we would be doing a lot of Eggo eating later, so I left with a full tummy!
Then it was time for some more fun!
The secret part or our trip was that we were there to learn about and create Eggo Eggoji’s! This is such a brilliant and natural progression from emojis! Now you can speak in “Eggojis”! Maddie and I send each other emojis all the time. I feel like that is our “language” now. Feeling hungry? There is an emoji for that. Feeling mad, yep there is one for that too! But, now we can take it to the next level with Eggojis! Can you tell I’m a little (a lot) excited?
After we learned all about the new Eggojis, Maddie and I set off to make some of our own.
Neither of us considers ourselves very creative on the crafting front, but give us food to play with and watch out world! We had so much fun. I stopped Maddie just before she started picking out her “material” and she was totally like “take the picture quick, I’ve got big ideas”. Love this girl!
The first ones we made were kinda practice ones. We weren’t sure what we wanted to say with our Eggojis. Then it all started to click!
I was all about zen, peacefulness, and California! This was my California dreaming Eggoji!
Followed by my acai bowl Eggoji. Yes, I’m totally a Southern California girl!
Maddie on the other hand was all about being sneaky, snarky, and all around badness. I love her devil Eggoji!
After an afternoon of Eggoji making, we were starving! So we headed to a special room set up with some creative and tasty Eggo treats!
I’m going backwards from how they were served to us because, Eggo hamburgers (ice cream sandwiches)! Need I say more? This was brilliant! There was a “pickle” made out of grapes, cheese that was a mango slice, chocolate ice cream “meat”, and a strawberry “tomato”. I am totally making this for Emmy soon. She will LOVE it!
There were Eggo tacos!
And Eggo cheese and ham sandwiches!
We had the best time ever, and are so excited for the new Eggojis! Maddie and I will now have a new “language” to speak! You can download them here for both Android and iOs.
These are our favorite Eggojis, and there are a bunch more to choose from!
Next time Maddie asked to go spend a fortune at the mall…. I will simply text back “Nope”!
Wake up time will be much easier with a simple text message of “Rise and Shine”
…and when she still doesn’t wake up… “Wake Up” will be sent over!
Then there is “unicorn”. This is Maddie’s favorite! I just know this will be coming my way 1,000 times a day! Bring. It. On!
There are many more Eggojis to explore and experience. Download the app here and let me know what your favorite Eggoji is!
This is my dream. It’s all breakfast all the time! And those Eggo emojis are amazing.
Those are some seriously delicious looking eggos. How much fun you must have had!
Those eggos rock! It sure sounds like you guys had fun.
What a great event! It looks like so much fun. I love Eggo waffles. We always have them in our house, but now I need to top them with fruit!!
Those Eggoji’s are totally adorable! I love the unicorn. I bet you guys had a super tasty time there in San Jose. 🙂
We sure did Dawn! We had great company there with us too! 😉
Oh what fun emojis… Ha! They are cracking me up. We are a huge Eggos family… we eat them all the time. Thanks for sharing your experience with us
Darn autocorrect kept correcting my EGGOJI’s lol… not emojis
LOL! It did that to me too!
I haven’t had one of thee in years! I always love them when I eat them! Kind of a fund way to eat them with emojis!
The Eggo emojis are so cool! It’s been a long time since we had Eggos. The girls will love this.
That looks like so much fun. I would love to have been able to go there. I love Eggos! They taste so good. I love all the different ones you guys made. How fun!
I absolutely adore eggo waffles! Seriously, the best! Looks like such a fun day of events!
This looks like it was a fun quick trip. I would love to try the acai bowl Eggoji. They all look delicious.
These are a great way to dress up breakfast. My kids are going to love eating Eggoji.
It looks like you had a great time together! I have been seeing them float around Twitter and I think they are adorable.
WOW! Those Eggos with fruit on top look so yummy! I love Eggo, and now have some new ideas for breakfast! thanks!
Oh my goodness these are fantastic!!! I can’t wait to download them and start sending eggoji’s to my friends, lol.
Oh yummy! Some of the best mornings are when we crack out the fresh fruit and the eggos. And now they have eggoji’s too cute!
How fun!! The food looks so yummy!!! I love all the different emojis!!
The food is making me so hungry! 🙂 That devil Eggoji is just so cute. I will recreate that one of these days. 🙂
What a fun and memorable experience! I could seriously eat everything that you pictures above right now – I definitely have some breakfast inspiration!
I love egoo waffles! Blueberry is my families favorite and it’s amazing to have on a Saturday morning with the whole breakfast layout. I didn’t realize you could do so much with egoo’s I am truly inspired at this point to try a few you suggested.
This is The only waffle brand that I actually will purchase my personal favorite is the Homestyle waffles . Looks like Unicom you had a great experience at the factory I’m glad you kept your hands to yourself not in the production line thanks for that.
Eggo Emojis?? Super cute and super yummy I bet!! What a great trip!!
Love the palm tree one. You guys really did get the creative juices flowing. Looks like you had a blast together, glad you got to spend some quality time!
They are so super fun, aren’t they? I love the designs they came up with and the event was awesome!
What a creative and healthier way of serving waffles. My kids love it with fruits as well.
You two look so much alike in that picture with the thumbs up! So lucky you got to attend such a fun event! Looking forward to the new Eggo emojis! Especially the unicorn! P.S Eggo tacos?? Yes please!!!
Looks like loads of fun! Eggo waffles are so popular in our house. We never decorate or make them fun though, I think we need to asap!
Oh my! This looks like loads of fun. Makes me want to eat some waffles now!
I can tell you two enjoyed that trip very much! I wanted some Eggo for myself too!
This looks like such a neat event! We all LOVE Eggos here and they never last more than a few days to a week at most. We love making pb&j with Eggos.
I don’t remember the last time I had eggos, all these awesome dishes have me hankering! You guys are so lucky, what a cool experience, I can imagine the nostalgia!
