Savory Waffles - Partnership with Hexa

Updated: May 22


There are probably loads of reasons why I don't post waffles and pancakes on this website. Well, maybe not yet. One of the reasons is my broken waffle machine; I am just too lazy to buy one. Or perhaps, I do not see the investment worth it. This is because a griddle works perfectly fine for making waffles.



Yes, I said it. although not technically, those grill lines somehow resemble waffles to me. You can debate all you want with me. I still will not back down. As for pancakes? Waffles > Pancakes. Period. Fight me!



Anyhow, Hexa sent me their awesome waffle mix and they are too darn good not to use. In my own humble opinion, I think that savory waffles beat sweet waffles just by a little. I mean, who can refuse waffles and chicken? See where I am going? I know, I know, I left like 3 debates here, let's save those for another day and enjoy these savory waffles with Hexa.
