Akira Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 This discussion started once at breakfast when we had waffles. According to my friend at school, there is no such thing as a potato waffle. However, Now come on, we all know what potato waffles are, BUT because the dictionary defines a waffle as a batter cake with a pattern of deep indentations on each side, formed by the gridlike design on each of the two hinged parts of the metal appliance (waffle iron) in which the cake is baked, he claims that marketing companies have mistakenly named the potato waffle from the start, and should have called them potato griddles or something. Wikipedia does back up the existence of potato waffles. Anyways, discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RestLess-BoTics Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 They're still delicious. And you can't change that. ;] -Glasstin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrometheusMFD Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 A waffle is batter based. You can essentially make anything into a batter. There is potato bread (which is a dough-based baked good), so theoretically, you can make potatoes into a batter, thus allowing for potato waffles. I see no reason why there shouldn't be.

FindingTheEverlight Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Well, a regular waffle is made of the same batter as a pancake, so possible a potato waffle is that same as a potato pancake! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
