It’s heartening to know that Nick is getting the most out of his almost absurdly single-use kitchen tool. He originally purchased hsi waffle cone maker to unite chicken and waffles in the easiest possible eating configuration. It’s more than a little shocking that state fairs aren’t inundated with more waffle cone based foods, most likely double fried for good measure. He’s also made a delicious looking pizza cone which honestly sounds like the awesome love child of a crepe and a pizza.
