The Story of Eggo Waffles: From Basement to Breakfast

Kraig explains that March 25th is notably National Waffle Day, distinguishing waffles from pancakes based on batter, cooking, and texture, highlighting the waffle's crispy pockets ideal for toppings. It then chronicles the origin and evolution of Eggo Waffles, starting with the Dorsa brothers' initial "Eggo" brand and their invention of a mass-production method for frozen waffles. Originally called "Froffles," they were quickly nicknamed "Eggos" due to their eggy flavor and were later acquired by Kellogg's, achieving national popularity with the memorable "L'eggo my Eggo" slogan and becoming a dominant force in the frozen waffle market.
