3. And THESE

ayo

4. They have many different names but it’s the humble Wafer to you

5. You wish you could just buy them in the shop

6. Sometimes you went wild and had raspberry ripple

7. But that vanilla taste just takes you back

It’s aaaaall about simplicity.

8. Every Irish person knows the only way to eat them is to lick the sides

9. Breakfast? Wafer

Lunch? Wafer.

Dinner? Wafer.

Dessert? WAFER.
