My first memory is waking up on the office floor partially buried in Dana Simpson comics, but just the parts where a furry character is shaved. I don’t know what that says about the man I was before my amnesia, but I’m probably a better man for being afraid when I came to.
“The earliest waffles were called flatbreads. In the Fertile Crescent of the Middle East, flatbreads or waffles were the common nutritious source. They were easy to make because you only need flour and water. The making of waffles was started when the honeycomb-patterned waffle irons were forged by the craftsman. It was done in the 1200s. The batter was poured into the cooking irons which were cooked on an open-hearth fire.
“The word Waffle comes from an old French word, Guafre, which means Wafla. The word wafla was then converted into waffles. In Europe, waffles were commonly sold by street vendors over the years. In the 16th century, European society was eating waffles. The privileged class used to add milk, eggs, and honey to eat the waffles as a delicate treat with added taste.”
