This was EXCELLENT news as I live only 20 minutes from Lancaster, Pa, home of the PA Dutch. I may exhaust my entire savings indulging in what I consider a wonder of the world.
- Hillary Fay Hausler
- Chad - I went backpacking across Europe in 2006 and first discovered them while staying with my cousin in Prague. A week later, I stumbled upon piles and piles of them in the Netherlands during Queens Day. I bought 11 packs of 10, wanting to share them with my friends and family when I returned to Texas. I ended up eating 10 of those 11 boxes. Thanks to World Market, my cravings can always be fulfilled :)

- One day long ago in the 1980's I attended the wedding of a co-worker (Seattle) who was from Oak Harbor WA marrying a young man who came to the US from The Netherlands with his parents when he was a young boy. They lived somewhere in Lynden WA. That area Skagit seems to have a lot of Dutch - there are wonderful fields of Tulips grown every year and a festival. Anyway back to the important thing... stroopwafels... many of her husband's family still lived in The Netherlands and brought many, many stroopwafels for the reception and I've been trying to find them ever since (I have found packaged ones but they just aren't the same). My younger sister attended the wedding with me & before we left that reception, we had to take a few more. I bet if she knew about this page she might just have to post.

- A few years too late, but a local coffeehouse sells stroopwafels (at a considerable markup, mind you) and, now that I have had them, I can say with certainty that I love them. harej 21:32, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
- Kathleen P., Phoenix, AZ -- There is no such thing as just eating one stroopwafel, not even just one bag. They are soooooooooooo good and soooooooo addicting! I had them first in Beverwijk, Holland from a grocery store. They didn't look like much, but my Dutch friend I was staying with said they were really good. The minute I had the first one, I couldn't stop! I bought 2 bags to bring back home. The first was gone on the plane, and the second (bag of mini stroopwafels) was gone the day after I got home. I have since bought some in Phoenix at World Market, imported from a different town in Holland. Good, but not as good as the ones in Beverwijk! Looking for more brands in Phoenix, AZ.

- Carlos M. - Everyone should try at least one in their lifetime, they are simply delightful and great as an energy source.
- Many, many years ago, living in Berlin (West Berlin, and the Wall was to remain in power for some time yet, that's how long ago it was--yes, I'm old), I went for a solo visit to Amsterdam for a few days, to enjoy some of the many diversions and charms to be found there. Sitting alone in a coffee shop, looking up from a copy of Rolling Stone, I saw a very cute young lady, who began talking with me. We had a great conversation (thank goodness for the excellent English of most Dutch folk), but then she had to get going. First though, she asked where I was going, which was as yet undecided, so she said I must go to the big street market (don't remember its name), where I must be sure to eat a fresh, hot stroopwafel, and she would give me a ride there, as it was on her way. So I got behind her, on her bicycle, and hung on--really hung on, for a scary-exciting ride through the streets and traffic of the city, at what seemed crazy speed, especially around the corners (I wonder if I go back nowadays if I could find someone to give me another ride like that--it was great!). She dropped me off at the wonderful market, where I quickly found the item she'd commanded me to eat. It really didn't look all that impressive...but you fellow addicts know the rest of the story. I'll never really recover. The stashes to be found from the limited sources in N. Texas can't really compare, but I make do, going cold-turkey intermittently, before tumbling back off the wagon. But I just saw there's a video on YT, on how to make your own, so we'll see....--Toscaskiss32 (talk) 07:27, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

- Maarten Kenter - This is where texture and flavour meet!
- Adetoun Karunwi- Best thing ever. I wish I didn't eat it because I am now soo addicted!!

- Kayla VandenBosch (GR, MI) - They're like crack. 200-calories-per-serving crack. 11/21/2013
- Nathan T - Tasted a stroopwafel for the first time visiting Amsterdam, and immediately became addicted. Back in the US, people still don't believe stroopwafel is a real word.
- Tim Hop (GR, MI)ranking SUPER ADDICT. Because I have eaten a whole bag in one morning. Have also had a fresh Stroopie at market in Ermelo, NL.
- Margery (SD, USA) - I am 3rd generation Dutch-American (7 of 8 great-grandparents were born in Netherlands). Made about 300 Stroopwafels in NW Iowa with one of my aunts, a sis, and sis-in-law on 1/4/2014!!! Grandma made them every Christmas as part of our gift so we have vowed to carry on the tradition with our own children and grandchildren. Have loved eating them for most of my 53 years on this earth. Until making them myself I did not understand what a labor of love it was for my grandma to make these every year for her 4 children and 21 grandchildren.
- Lukas Bos (because stroopwafels are awesome!)
- Kevin Friel - I've tried my first one today, now I have eaten 10... resting one over a cup of tea for 5 minutes so the steam gets one side soggy whilst keeping the other side crispy is the way forward. My dentist is going to love me...
- Alessandra CB. - I just had one, melted by warm tea; perfection.
- Reed Borgholthaus (ID, USA) Probably should be considered a gateway snack....to a better life!
- Kaity T. - I started eating Stroopwafels on the weekend, but now it's a daily thing. I'm so glad to know I'm not alone.
- Vaibhav C. - I am so glad I ate stroop wafel. This is the first time and would love to have more.
- Fred Le Quemener - I got hooked on stroopwafels since the first time I tried one. Now, I can not think of eating anything else anymore... It surely beats all that we have from our own French kitchen...
- Stephane Cadot - hmmmm... stroopwafel, what else...
- Kimberly: eating one right now.

- Chad Johnson - I had my first Stroopwafel in Amsterdam. I live in Austin, Texas, and they have them here at Whole Foods (at least, the one by the Domain) in the glass cookie cabinet! They are simply called caramel cookies here. They look and taste exactly like those in Amsterdam! YAY!!
- MrDelizia Coworker brought some back from Europe with her and gave me two. I am hooked.
- Mary-Ann Hooper-Grindel is captain of Team Stroopwafel and needs them hidden round the house.
- Keeping my Waffle Anoniem - There is a company of incontinence materials in Holland that offers a package of Stroopwafels with every delivery! Not that I am ordering in my name, but I do offer to unpack the boxes when they arrive.

- My name is Phil and I'm an addict. I was sucked in by a street peddler who offered me a "free taste" I haven't been the same since. I left clothes the Amsterdam in order to pack more of these delicious creations into my suitcase. I can not see any hope for me.
- My name is Allison and I LOVE STROOPWAFELS! Visited Holland in 2006 and ran into them being made in the street in the middle of a street fair in Vianen. Never tasted anything so good. Dream about them daily. Can't wait to get back there to have the fresh ones, because packaged is just not the same!
- Some members of my in-laws' family are living in the Netherlands, so I get my fix of stroopwafels whenever they're here for a vacation ;) --- Titopao (talk) 06:05, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
- Martijn S. and Mieke D. - spreading the addiction across Southern Ontario
- Mr A.Badger (December 2014) - I had my first taste from a corner shop in the UK. Since then every Lidl trip ends in picking a large pack up. I am now in the process of persuading the Dutch guy at work to bring me back/make me some official goods. Just need a bigger hit!
- Rocco Rizzo- I had stroopwafels when I was in the Netherlands in October of 2014. I fell in love with a Dutch woman, the Netherlands, and stroopwafels! Now that I am back in the US, I cannot wait to go back. Now that I can find stroopwafels in, of all places, Mall-Wart, I can have them any time and am thoroughly addicted!

- Michael Morgan... so freaking amazing.
- Catriona Cassidy has never had real, fresh stroop from De Nederland, but is a frequent consumer of Daelmans packaged wafels.

- Evidently, I was one of the few lucky enough to try the packaged variety on United Airlines before they stopped serving them. I even took an extra two off the plane and just had the last one a few weeks ago. I guess it's off to the Netherlands to get the real thing next time! Hamaxides (talk) 16:19, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
