Welcome to the '''Association of Stroopwafel Addicts''' (''ASA''). This is an association for people who have tasted a [[w:Stroopwafel|stroopwafel]] at least *once* and like it very, very, very much.
There is no obligation to be Dutch. Documentation on the history of the Stroopwafel in Wikimedia can be found on the official ASA posters.<ref>[//wikimania2007.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:PublicationStroopwafels.png the official ASA poster for Wikimania 2007]</ref><ref>[//wikimania2008.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:StroopwafelsSocialMean.png the official ASA poster for Wikimania 2008]</ref> You are welcome to print the poster yourself and hang it up in all appropriate places. You may add yourself '''''if''''' you have tasted the taste of heaven, the stroopwafel. Please remember that only DUTCH STROOPWAFELS count!

These people obviously want to become part of the Association, but have to fulfill the most important requirement: eating a stroopwafel.
# Dylan Troop was quoted as saying "Stroopwafels ruined my marriage. I was so addicted i would sneak out of the house at night and run down to the ATM to pull money out just to buy more stroopwafels. Well that was until my bank account went into the red and i couldnt afford to pay my bills. And that wasnt even the most depraved state ive been in. I love stroopwaffels"

# Applying as a 25-year plus stroopwafel aficionado, going back to my time living in Britain, working with  Dutch folks. Am a continued enthusiast now on Canada's West Coast, promoting the stroopwafel cause to friends, co-workers and MEC members. BTW: in Vancouver, BC, one can find good quality SWs, licorice and hand-made chocolate at "Dutch Girl" on Commercial Drive.

# I like travelling to Wikimedia events. I tell everybody that I like to do it because there I meet my friends, I do interesting things and I can go sightseeing. But all of this is secondary. The main reason is that someone always brings stroopwafels to Wikimedia events. It is for them that I cross continents.

==Counter Addiction Stroopwafel Unit Members (CASUM)==
[[File:Picswiss_BL-57-12.jpg|thumb|A poor alternative delicacy]]
These people try to stop unhealthy Stroopwafel consumption and showing those addicts the right nutrition path. Like eating lettuce, carrots, apples, and other healthy snacks. Take note however that they are just as easily susceptible to the delicious temptation of a stroopwafel, and may even "confiscate" your prized possessions only to consume it themselves later on.
