Waffles can be found from Brussels to Hong Kong across the ocean to America and come in a more variety of ways: hotdog waffles (Hawai'i), syrup filled Strtoopwafel (Germany), with tapioca flour (Indonesia), coconut milk (Vietnam), peanut butter (Hong Kong), Spanish wine....Chocolate waffles first appeared in Germany.

Jump back in history to the ancient Greeks who made cooked flat cakes, called οβελίος /obelios/ "arrow", between hot metal plates. They used the same mixture of flour, water or milk, and eggs as most waffles are made today.
