I can spell it. I can make it. Sat here, I can say it, however should I wish to order it, additional syllables sneekily insert themselves into the word.

"I'll have some fella-fa-laff-fuful in a piita bread with salad please."

I've seen it spelled 'flaffle'
which I think is delightful.

I love the word
I like saying it in a New York accent. Even though apparently its from the Middle East. O well.
