And it seems they are even freshly made - better than what Roan can provide
you with (sorry Roan, but usually we indeed provide a second grade
product..), but you actually have to /go/ there to get them.

By the way, guess where they are linking for the pronunciation?! That
should give you a discount, I'd guess...

Never heard of Stroopies, but for those with access to a CostCo store, I
have persoally taste-tested their stroopwafels against the true Goudse
Stroopwafels and can vouch for them. The ones for sale at Barnes and Noble
cafés that are individually wrapped are *not* the real thing, however,
though tasty in their way.

BCCing the Wikimedia-sf list so that they see it ;) [though I imagine I'll
