But the meat isn't sandwiched between the two waffles as you might expect; it's cooked directly into the batter.Video: Stephen Colbert Plays Fondue Pong at the Vancouver Winter Olympics Swiss House
Stephen Colbert visited the Swiss House at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics, where he challenged director Manuel Salchli to a bout of fondue pong.
