People on social media are sticking everything from hot dogs to chicken teriyaki in their waffle irons
has made the series #canitwaffle, in which he puts everything from Smuckers Uncrustables to teriyaki steak in the waffle maker in his classroom.
Unlike some other TikTok trends where you have to really stretch to figure out why everyone is suddenly smearing nacho fixings across a whole countertop, waffling everything has incredibly obvious appeal. Waffle irons are relatively cheap, cook food quickly, and give it an even crunch, and opening a lid to reveal waffled Skittles or cheeseburgers makes a great visual on video-driven social media.
But as with so many social media trends, there is an air of desperation here. You can sense in many of these videos the hope thatwaffle recipe, equal parts practical and surprising, will be the one to go viral. Like butter boards and mug cake and birria anything, waffled meals fit the Known Entity + Fun Twist=Success equation.
Still, that’s just how social media works, irrespective of waffles. And as trends go, the waffle iron might be the best possible one. It’s relatively accessible and easy to use and no one is going to accuse you of culturally appropriating Belgians. If this is the world we have to live in, one where sharing recipes is a matter of “content creation,” then fine, make everything a waffle. At least I don’t have to buy a new appliance.Thanks for signing up!Oops. Something went wrong.
