The Eggo was designed by Professor Charles Thurman Eggopolis of the Waffle Institute of Belgium. In 1931 he was commissioned by the US military to design a 'new, more stealthy' breakfast food that could penetrate Communist interests in the East. The Eggo as his design came to be known was the best amongst a few options presented such as, the Western Bomblette, Blueberry Pantanks, and Frosted Nuclear Fallout Flakes.

Other frozen waffles of the time tasted like cardboard! They wanted to advertise that there's were more like homemade and contained eggs.
