Waffling on Space Matters

Problem:  Regular ovens don't work in space.  Besides convection not working without gravity, there's also the issue of making sure the food is secured and evenly-cooked.  If only there were some kind of device that could enclose food and cook it... evenly... hmm...  An assortment of waffle-based foods float around a group of astronauts.  Proposal:  All space food is waffles.

To be fair, you'd probably also need a fan of some sort to pull steam away from the waffle iron (more anti-gravity fun), and even then I'm not 100% sure it will work.  But if this becomes a thing, you heard it here first.
