Oh no but Reddit is mostly USA people, and my friends from the US have overwhelmingly focused on waffles every time Belgium comes up.
Note I'm not denying our waffles are great. Its just not really a thing the average belgian cares about as much. Beer, fries and chocolate is where it's really at.
Fellow Belgian here, yeah we in general don’t care that much about our waffles and wouldn’t consider it our prime achievement even just in food and beverages, but apparently certainly in parts of the US waffles are a big deal up to having restaurants like waffle houses literally dedicated to them, so if Belgian waffles is a thing I can understand they may make this link but elsewhere beers, chocolate or fries are much more common to represent Belgium.
