Which oil to make Belgian waffles - sunflower or vegetable?

[GoldfinchesHiccup]

I made a cake with vegetable oil a while ago and it tasted revolting! Like old chips
All the recipes I've seen say vegetable oil, a lot of them are american recipes. Would sunflower be ok or is vegetable best?

Vegetable oil often is sunflower. Or canola depending on which crop is cheapest.
I'd be suspicious of any recipe calling for large amounts of cheap oil - it will taste awful. What's wring with butter?

All the recipes seem to use oil rather than butter.
