You can eat Eggos without toasting them as Eggos are already fully cooked and can be eaten without heating them up.

Although Eggos taste better when heated up or toasted but they are fully cooked and okay to eat right out of the package.

Eggos Waffles are made in Rossville, Tennesseee.

Eggo Waffles first debuted in grocery stores in 1953 under the name Froffles, a portmanteau of “frozen” and “waffles.”

Customers referred to them simply as “Eggos,” and the Froffles moniker was dropped within two years.

Eggo waffles were invented in 1953 by the American inventor Frank Dorsa, who developed a process by which waffles could be cooked, frozen, and packaged for consumers.

Along with frozen waffles, the Dorsa brothers also produced Eggo potato chips (and Golden Bear potato chips) and Eggo syrup. When Eggos first launched in stores, they were called “Froffles” which was a combination of the words “frozen” and “waffles.”

Many people were just calling them “Eggos” for short because they had an eggy flavor to them, leading to officially changing the name to Eggo.

All of the products were produced at a sprawling plant and factory on Eggo Way in San Jose, California, near the intersection of US 101 and East Julian Street.

The Dorsas were very involved in local community activities and donated extensively to school and community projects.

For Halloween, instead of candy, Tony Dorsa would give out bags of Eggo potato chips to trick-or-treaters.

Although these Eggo waffles may be called homestyle, its ingredient list looks anything but homey!

Highly processed, white wheat flour is nutritionally empty and quickly digested into sugars, causing one's blood sugar to spike.

According to Kellogg's, a serving size of their Eggo waffles is two waffles.

The ingredients in Eggo Waffles are Enriched flour (wheat flour, niacin, reduced iron, vitamin B1 [thiamin mononitrate], vitamin B2 [riboflavin], folic acid), water, vegetable oil (soybean, palm, canola and/or cottonseed), sugar, leavening (baking soda, sodium aluminum phosphate, monocalcium phosphate), contains 2% or less of salt, dextrose.
