I need your help.
You will be handsomely rewarded…
With waffles.
Allow me to explain.
A few months ago a company was born called Surprisingly Vegan.
You may recall my elusive post at the beginning of the process back in October. I was so excited I could hardly contain myself, but now I can share the news with you all. Kyle and some fellow MBA students at UCLA are starting up a line of vegan, gluten-free products. [!!!!]
Normally I cringe when business crap is the topic of discussion at the dinner table (slash anywhere), but this kind of “research and development” is right up my alley.
Their debut product will be the classic waffle. And since I’ve tasted it many times, I can confirm it’s mighty tasty. Interests piqued?
They are still doing more market research and are looking to YOU for help. Below I have posted a link to a questionnaire. It isn’t too long (just over 10 questions) and is entirely anonymous. By filling it out, you are helping them collect valuable data to assist in the creation of Surprisingly Vegan’s product line.
As compensation for your time, they are going to reward you with a sample of their just-add-water waffle mix. The dry blend is vegan and gluten-free and is so easy to make, because all you have to do is add water. Not eggs. Not oil. Not butter. Just water. It’s really yummy, and it’s freakin’ hearty too.
Now pay attention to this part because it’s of importance.
There is no place for you to enter your name (since there is health data they wanted to keep it anonymous). Therefore, you have to leave a comment below after filling out the survey. I will select TWO winners at random from the comments section. So just click the link, fill out the survey, then come back here to leave a comment telling me you have done so.
Ready? CLICK HERE
I’ll announce the winner Saturday, March 5th.
Good luck!
done and done!!!

Did the survey! I was a raw foodist for a while but quit while traveling because it was so difficult to keep a balanced diet. I would love to see more healthy began options on menus everywhere! Thank you for you work!

I did the survey! Sweet product! I’m excited to see what else they come up with!
Vegan AND gluten free waffles?!? I have almost completely destroyed the Teflon on my boyfriend’s waffle iron trying to scrape too many of my own failed batches out of it. I thought it was just one of those fictional/fantasy concepts like unicorns and trees that grow money. And I gave up. So I hope this isn’t a joke. The waffle iron can’t take much more abuse. 😉
Whoops. I did the survey btw. Forgot to say that.
I did the survey!
I surveyed it UP. Thanks!
Survey mission complete.

Oh, exciting! I was just thinking today about how I want to try a new vegan pancake mix! 🙂

That was an easy way to potentially win some waffles!
I did the survey! I’ve been doing so many for my college lately that I thought one more wouldn’t too hard 🙂
I did the survey! The waffle mix is a great idea!
did the survey!
I filled out the questionnaire! There were several mistakes with the questionnaire though, and it could have been designed better (sorry to be critical, but I do a lot of survey design work so I can’t help myself!). One crucial mistake is the one about eating breakfast “in your daily life”. It doesn’t say whether you are supposed to be answering based on your monthly, weekly, yearly, etc. habits. I assumed it was monthly, but it’s a problem because it’s not stated! Anyway, it’s an excellent idea for a business venture, and I hope you still get the answers you need.
survey done 🙂 YUM & Congrats! this sounds totally exciting!
I did the survey 🙂 Yay for Kyle! The company sounds great – I would love some waffle mix! Good for him and the other students.

Reading your blog is not only a joy because you are such a talented and clever writer but also because your ideas open my mind and help me and the hubby on our eternal journey to better health. The time and effort you put into your blog is greatly appreciated by not only me, but obviously by many, many others judging by your loyal readers. Since I was commenting for the survey I just thought I’d take the time to share my thoughts with you and to say thank you for what you do. Best of luck to kyle on his new venture.

Thank goodness for a vegan, gluten-free breakfast item for restaurants!!! I have a few places around town that are vegan and g-f friendly, but none have any breakfast options other than a biscotti here and there. And g-f pancakes are never vegan! I appreciate the effort to accommodate both, as breakfast over a cup of tea at a restaurant is my FAVORITE, especially after long night shifts. But, alas, I have had to give up breakfast at restaurants after going vegan and g-f, both for health reasons. Hail to the return of the breakfast!!!
Survey complete! Best of Luck!
The survey is done!! I’m on a permanent vegan, gluten free, soy free diet, so products like this would be amazing for me!!
Did the survey! Yumm waffles!
