IHop they have someone to bail them out of jail.
Two Chicago teens were caught sticky handed last week after attempting to sell undercover cops a kilo of pancake mix disguised as cocaine.

According to the Chicago Tribune Rafael Osorio Jr. and Jaime A. Anselmo were charged with "manufacture or delivery at a specified location and manufacture or delivery of a look alike substance."

The undercover cops arranged a meet up to purchase a kilo of cocaine for $27,000, but when the teens arrived they brought pancake mix wrapped in plastic and tape to give the illusion that it was actually cocaine.

Now $27,000 for just one box of pancake mix is a hefty price, but I'm curious how many pancakes $27,000 could get you. So let's break this down.
Here is a 32oz box of Hungry Jack Complete Buttermilk Pancake and Waffle Mix. The average price for this box is approximately $1.98, so let's just round that up to $2 — after all we have $27,000 to blow on pancakes. That means we can buy 13,500 boxes of pancake mix.
Now according to the box 1/2 cup of dry mix will make roughly three 4-inch pancakes. There are 4 cups in a box so basically one box of pancake mix gets us about 24 4-inch pancakes.
