Why Frozen Waffles?


National Frozen Food Month: Frozen Waffles

In the world of frozen food, the one frozen meal that has always perplexed me is the frozen breakfast. Why? Why do we make breakfast from the freezer?! Of all the meals in a day, breakfast is quite possibly the easiest one to make "from scratch." Heck, how hard is it to pop two slices of bread into the toaster? And yet the frozen food aisle has an entire section dedicated to frozen eggs with bacon, frozen breakfast sandwiches, frozen oatmeal. What is so difficult about making oatmeal that we have to turn to the frozen stuff?!

However, there is one frozen breakfast item that gets an excuse: the frozen waffle.

Waffles, you see, are not all that convenient to make. They're not difficult, but they do require the preparation of a batter as well as their very own, uni-jobber piece of equipment, a waffle-maker. A frozen waffle, if you find the right one, will not be anywhere close to as good as homemade, but are probably the least lame of the frozen breakfast foods.
