what the fuck man. I had to add chocolate chips like a child just to get some sort of flavor. are waffles a meme?

These waffles look dense as fuck
This recipe works well: https://www.seriouseats.com/buttermilk-vanilla-waffles-recipe
(The savory variant is great too https://www.seriouseats.com/bacon-cheese-scallion-waffle)

I can understand the flavorless premade mix, but it's not possible you added all of that shit and still didn't get anything. Premade mix is designed to quickly feed children in the morning. It's to give soccer moms the illusion of being good mothers because she didn't buy frozen eggo waffles for her kids like Shanequia does.

You think I'm lying on the internet for no reason?

you were supposed to add blueberries or chopped strawberries, ya dingus. it's also possible that you just didn't add enough of the flavorful ingredients. finally whole wheat and protein mixes notoriously suck ass, even compared to el cheapo regular mix

>>21465939
yes

if you bought the kodiak mix then there's your problem
shit is like 95% gluten, it's so tough and chewy

>>21465581 (OP)
Are you complaining to us because you're not competent enough to make waffle batter from scratch?

>>21465581 (OP)
So the thing is, pretty much any flavor needs salt or sugar to really be perceptible. Its the same thing with savory food, you can pile heaps of spices on something but without salt youll barely taste them. So you need to add some of one or both to your mix to actually taste the other flavors.

waffles are as much of a US meme as corn flakes
"""""protein""""", lmao

>>21466213
Waffles aren't even American, nor associated with America you dense faggot. You would've been less retarded if you said pancakes.

>>21466224
op's aborted """""healthy and protein fortified""""" waffle mixes are certainly american, retard
this is what is sold everywhere as "waffles" in america, no one makes them from scratch

>>21466243
What the fuck are you on about, sperg? Do you think protein waffle mix is exclusively an American thing? It's a product marketed towards athletic people, it's that simple.
Here's some protein waffle mix that's made in Denmark if you're autistic enough to want to argue about this any further.

>>21465581 (OP)
By "meme" do you mean HOAX or something? Like it's a prank you fell for? You know there's a chain called Waffle House. Perhaps you just can't fucking cook, zoomer faggot.

Fucking "meme"... Kill yourself.

>>21466280
how are you so autistic
ALL waffles sold in US are made from waffle mix, fortified or not
waffle mix is as far removed from waffles proper as american HFCS ketchup from proper home-made ketchup
US "waffles" are a US meme, like corn flakes are, a slop food for peasants

>>21466309
That is not what the word meme means at all. So stop.

>>21466312

>>21466280
Anything with "protein" on the label just means they added cheap ass factory rejected whey concentrate to the mix. Unflavored whey gives a horrible taste and texture to anything you put it in unless you add a shit ton of sweeteners. Don't ever buy anything being sold as high protein because it will taste like shit. Just take whey separately if you need protein.

>>21466309
Oh you're just a semantics driven monkey, I see. You're also just talking out of your ass if you think every diner in America is using a waffle mix. Most places that aren't a national chain do make their own batter from scratch.
And do they not sell pancake/waffle mix where your from? Do you think all your peers would agree with you if you went on an autistic tirade about how their quick family breakfast isn't "real waffles" unless it's made from scratch by a fat Belgian man?
Chill out, Mr Miyagi.

>>21466132
Yes it was the kodiak brand mix. I had no idea, but what does it being tough and chewy have to do with flavor?

>>21466287
>zoomer boogieman
Yeah man /ck/ on a sunday afternoon is a fucking hotbed for us zoomers. And yes, meme = joke in case my usage baffled you because you're a brainlet retard.
Friendly reminder to lurk at least 5 years before posting! Hope this helps!

It's called long covid, sorry your taste buds are fried.

>>21466647
No, this is a meme. Not waffles, not bacon, not avocados or rice cookers or air fryers. Image macros are memes and that's it! Condolences.
