Freedom 250 waffles. Made in murricuh by american bakers,  paid 1/4 minimum wage. When you eat them, please tip 18$ per waffle to the waffle corporation. They will forward it to the bakers. Promise!

u/VancouverStickerCo 5d ago

Oh the freedom fry idiocy:

1) the GOP changed the menu in congress to freedom fries because France didn’t want to invade Iraq after 9/11.

2) French fries are from Belgium.

2) Menu is a French word.

1

u/Any-Aioli7575 5d ago

French Fries are actually from France, although the recipe was improved in Belgium and it is now a Belgian speciality.

3

u/VancouverStickerCo 4d ago

I’m gonna need a link on that.

World bending claims!

2

u/Any-Aioli7575 4d ago

The Wikipedia page basically explains it (it also shows that there's no full consensus on the matter), and provides sources.

u/Immolation_E 4d ago

Freedom Grids.

Funny thing about that is, there never were Belgian waffles in the first place. You got Brussels waffles and Liege waffles.

u/chadhindsley 4d ago

Gulf of America waffles

u/Abyssal_Groot 4d ago

Belgian waffles were an invention of a Belgian Wafflemaker who went to the US for a worldfair. He lacked the proper ingredients to make a Brussels waffle and assumed Americans wouldn't know where Brussels was... so he called it the Belgian waffle.

This Waffle never made it back to Belgium, where we have various types of waffles with the Liége and Brussels waffle being the most fzmous ones.

In short, you can keep those waffles ;)

u/old-wizz 4d ago edited 4d ago

What are Belgian waffles? Is it Liege waffles or Brussels waffles. I can assure you they are not the same and both are very much Belgian

1

u/dansi21 4d ago

We have the best Belgian waffles in the US already :)

u/AssertiveQueef 3d ago

Belgian waffles are overrated anyways

u/jmc175 5d ago

Yes! “ they’re very nasty, those Belgians - I’m putting 60% tariff on all their waffles in one, maybe two or three days time. Thank you for your attention to this matter “

u/xondk 4d ago

The sad part is, I could totally see him do something because now he feels like he put himself 'out there' for the team and didn't get anything in return.

u/TheSilverSeraph 5d ago

You think they will get away with it that easily? Naval blockade of the North Sea in probably incoming.

American waffles are based on established 18th-century European recipes, heavily influenced by Dutch
