I have a very old chrome looking waffle iron from the 1950's that makes 
two (square) waffles at a time.  I vaguely remember my mother using it 
when I was a kid.  For some reason she kept it forever and I wound up 
with it.  I don't feel like dragging it out of the pantry to check the 
brand or snap another pic of it.  It's very retro.  Cooking waffles are 
simply not that interesting to me.
