This isn’t true. Samuel Bath Thomas immigrated to the US in 1874 and founded his business in 1880. References to English muffins can be found as early as 1859. (Yes, this is a different Thomas.)

Second is correct, although it leads further back to the Frankish wafla.

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author’s website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it’s not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post’s ‘body’ field (note: you don’t need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
AI-generated comics aren’t allowed.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.
