Thanks for setting off a craving! I still have my mother's old (1950's)
waffle iron so maybe I'll make waffles for breakfast. Later... it's too
early to eat ;)

You're not used to feeding rugrats. Frozen waffles/pancakes
are good to keep on hand for the grands... their eyes are much bigger
than their stomachs... they get all excited about waffles and then
after mixing up a bunch of batter and cooking a stack all they eat is
one, barely... slipping one [small] frozen waffle into the toaster
makes much more sense.... and be sure to keep a wet washcloth on the
table, it's amazing how much syrup can stick to little hands. And I
don't like waffles/pancakes, never did.

I had home made waffles when I was a kid and my wife likes to make them.
They are a bit of work, but they sure are worth it. I tried frozen
waffles once, decades ago. I was not impressed.

Can't imagine eating a frozen waffle but apparently for some people it's
going to be the end of breakfast as they know it. Poor them.

I've never liked waffles or pancakes either. For that matter, I don't
even like french toast.

We do that as well. Any time that we make a batch, we make enough batter to
stick a bunch in the freezer. They do toast up nicely :-)

Toaster waffles rank up there with frozen fish sticks as kid food.

Pop tarts rock! Blueberry nonfrosted with butter all smushed into the top. I
know it has been decades.

We just make single batches and wrap up any extras and keep them in the
fridge for a day or two and toast them lightly, just enough to warm them
up. They aren't as good as freshly made waffles, but they are better
than Eggos.

Yeah, but it's damned near impossible to find nonfrosted
Pop Tarts any more, at least around here. I liked the brown sugar
and cinnamon ones without frosting, but haven't seen any in the
stores in years. Of course, I haven't really been looking too hard
either, but every once in a while I'll check out the Pop Tarts
section in the grocery store hoping to find some without frosting.

My mom used to make pancakes and waffles from scratch all the time.
She grew up on a farm and learned to cook at a very early age. Her
waffles and pancakes always looked pretty and everybody else would go
after them like a bunch of pigs but I just never did care for them.
I'm sure they were good. I just don't like waffles or pancakes. The
same goes for french toast. I don't like bagels either. Now I will
eat any of that stuff if I have to. I would just never choose to eat
it. For me a good breakfast is a bowl of cereal, a glass of fresh
squeezed orange juice, and two pieces of cinnamon toast. If I don't
have cinnamon toast I like to have a homemade croissant with either
honey or strawberry preserves. Sometimes I'll indulge and have
homemade cinnamon rolls or danish pastry.

To tell you the honest to god truth, it probably won't shake them up
any more and probably less than the pumpkin shortage.

They are advertised so heavily around here, one assumes the supply must
be good. Otherwise why bother? Never mind...the answer to that is
obvious :)

To tell you the honest to god truth, it probably won't shake up people
any more than the pumpkin shortage. I just thought it was funny.
