A mysterious and exciting revival of a beloved snack has been unveiled by an airline, sparking joy and curiosity among frequent flyers. The news first emerged last year in the “r/unitedairlines” Reddit forum, where one eager traveler posed the question, “Where did the stroopwafel go???” The user expressed their confusion, stating, “Subject says it all. The first few months of the year, stroopwafel. The last few flights I’ve been on, some weird chocolate quinoa thing. What gives?”
In response to this inquiry, the Reddit community rallied together with comments urging for the return of the cherished stroopwafel. “Demand their return,” exclaimed one passionate user. Another individual vowed to take matters into their own hands, declaring, “I’m going to get a case and pass them out on my next flight.”
However, not everyone shared the same enthusiasm for the stroopwafel, with one dissenting voice noting, “Those stroopwafels are gross, sorry. Way too sweet.” This sentiment sparked further debate, with jesting remarks such as, “Everyone, get your pitchforks,” adding a lighthearted touch to the discussion.
Fast forward to 2024, and a United Airlines flyer once again took to Reddit to echo the sentiments of the past, asking fellow users, “Where did the stroopwafel go???” This inquiry reignited a wave of nostalgia and anticipation among travelers, who eagerly shared their thoughts on the potential return of the snack.
“A piece of much-needed good news,” rejoiced one user, while another expressed their excitement with a simple plea, “Sitting on an @united flight right now. Hello! Bring on the stroopwafel!! Thank you United.” The sentiment was echoed by many, with one enthusiast proclaiming, “A good stroopwafel is a top 5 dessert snack.”
As the anticipation continued to build, the official announcement was made on Feb. 1 that stroopwafels would be making their triumphant return to select United flights. This revelation brought joy to fans of the snack, who eagerly awaited the opportunity to once again enjoy this beloved treat at 30,000 feet.
The revival of the stroopwafel serves as a testament to the power of nostalgia and the impact of small pleasures during air travel. With its return, passengers can once again savor the simple delight of a stroopwafel paired with a hot cup of coffee, creating a comforting and familiar experience amidst the clouds.
