Welcome sir. What a great addition to the T-Nation fourms you are!

Look who brought you a present, Christine…
Devil dog had red eyes!

I know! After the last pancakes vs. waffles discussion in SAMA, I woke up the following morning and made…gasp…blueberry pancakes! While that may make me a traitor to the waffle cause, I will make extra waffles next time to hopefully make up for it.

Actually, this makes waffles inconvienant because of the additional cooking hardware needed. Have you every tried to clean a waffle iron? Pain in the ass.

I really don’t see how this can be a debate. I have kept silent but can’t any longer. When you make a waffle right, the tops of the ridges will be a little golden-er and a little more done than the squares. When you add the butter and syrup, the ridges stay crispy and waffley-tasting, and the “syrup traps” will be soft and butter-syrup-soaked.
So you have an entire array of textures and tastes all in one big, succulent waffle-orgy upon your tongue. THAT is why waffles are far superior to pancakes. Pancakes get soaked with syrup and mushy and disgusting. Yo Momma needs a keg with them because unless you’re likkered there’s no way they can be enjoyable.

Amazing way of describing the simple superiority of waffles over pancakes. The texture is much more diverse…no two bites are exactly the same. Some have a little more butter, others a bit more syrup, others a lot of both. Crap this thread makes me want to have some naughty food.
