I’m going to be creating and posting these “pickone” images that ask you to choose between two (or more) choices. Hope you guys enjoy it :)
I believe I’m obligated to vote for pancakes
Pancakes are outstanding, always top of the list. Lately I’ve been adding chocolate chips, even better
French Toast. I don’t care about waffle syrup pockets or fluffy discs, I will die on this hill, French Toast.
It is true that if we fight to hold this hill we may die here. But if we succeed, le tricolore will wave proudly in the breeze long after we are gone, and that is enough.
French toast. I think the egg gives it a bit of a boost.
Honestly, I just looked up recipes for waffles and pancakes. The main difference I’m seeing is some waffles have vanilla extract… and that’s basically the main thing. I prefer waffles, largely because of the texture and the little syrup pods, but otherwise I can go with either one.
Put some vanilla and cinnamon in your French toast eggs. It will blow your balls off.
There was a recent change in the recipe in the mix I usually get. Previously the waffle had more oil and egg, but now they’re the same recipe
Yes, waffles and pancakes are the same batter, they’re just cooked differently. Box mixes like usually say pancakes and waffles.
French toast. Fight me. We’ll meet up at Waffle House as is proper.
They call it Waffle House for a reason. Just saying.
Yeah, but it’s the place for scheduling reasons. If Waffle House is closed, we picked the wrong time.
Because French Toast House doesn’t roll off the tongue.
Maison de pain perdu
French toast all day every day
Those seem like desserts. Carbs, sugar, and cream. Not an ounce of protein.
That’s why you get Kodiak Protein mix. 14 g of protein in just the mix, make it with milk and eggs instead of water and you’ve got even more. It’s my favorite waffle/pancake mix they are so filling
French Toast should be a savory dish. I wouldn’t eat any of these.
Is savory French toast a thing? I’m intrigued. What kind of flavors does it go with?
I’ve made it a few times! I’ll actually use a dried mushroom powder (porcini) and mix that up with the batter.
You sound like a blast to hang out with
I am; for example, I make kickass breakfasts.
I make kickass breakfasts.
I doubt that considering you think French toast is savory.
And won’t even tell us what you make it with
Depends where I am and how much I trust the cooks.
If I’m somewhere that I know is good, French toast. Good French toast is the best of all the options.
If I’m somewhere pretty mid, I’ll probably go for waffles. Can’t reach the same highs or the same lows as FT.
Pancakes are the safest bet. There’s less variation than FT or waffles, so even the worst pancakes aren’t that bad.
Oh man, the variance you can get on French toast. Sometimes it’s heavenly and sometimes it’s just so soggy and chewy and tastes like scrambled eggs.
Pancakes are the most consistent, as you said, but even the best pancakes can’t beat the average waffle imho.
I don’t really like the sweet breakfast pastry concept. I guess waffles, preferable cornmeal or Belgian waffles. I’d much rather have a breakfast burrito with green chile or huevos rancheros though.
Crispy waffles > French toast > fluffy waffles > pancakes
This is my main problem with waffles, although I still would order them differently. Trying to make waffles for my kids, I can’t seem to batch them without losing that crispness. Instead of joining the family for breakfast I need to feed the machine and make sure every waffle gets an immediate consumer, so it will be nice and crisp
I make them and put them in the oven at a low heat to keep them warm and crispy.
Also swear by the pam Anderson recipe https://www.recipething.com/recipes/show/35555-pam-andersons-waffles
Do you like waffles? (Yeah, we like waffles!) 🎵

Por que no los tres?
This was my WoW guild’s hype song back in classic and BC.
Do you have any non-dessert options?
Did you see the pic? Obviously not
The number of people in here virtue signaling by refusing to follow the prompt. Pick one!
It was a tongue-in-cheek comment hoping to spur some conversation about alternatives. I don’t know what virtue would be signaled here. Also, I’m still awaiting official diagnosis but a DNA test mentioned I was likely to have celiac’s, my dad recently got diagnosed with it, and I’ve always had issues after eating nearly anything, so no wheat for me for now.
It was not so much you, but the folks who just can’t help but say that those are unhealthy and here’s a better option. Some dude took time out of his day to make a picture (maybe he’s AI, I dunno) and ask a question, and it just seems nitpicky and unproductive (and I guess I mean that in the dumbest way possible, I’m on my phone talking about pictures of breakfast confectionary, essentially).
That all being said, if the whole point is to start conversations, I guess even this counts and so upvotes to everyone.
EDIT: And sorry for your bad news but hopefully it’s good news because it’s not Schrodinger’s upset digestive tract, it presumably happens regardless of whether you’ve verified the cause. I don’t think I’ve got anything, but the older I get the worse things like IPA beers and heavy bread dishes hit me. Tired, bloated, etc. I just attribute it to my body failing me.
Yeah, my mom’s whole side of the family has issues like that. Dad’s not as much, but I may have lost the genetic lottery in that bit. Best of luck to you with your issues as well!
You don’t have to put the dessert toppings on it.
Waffles >> French Toast >>> Pancakes
Not even questionable. Pancakes turn into a disgusting gelatinous mess after like 10 seconds with syrup. They’re too dense, so you feel like shit after eating them.
Waffles are the GOAT and I’ll die on that hill
Put some peanut butter on the pancakes and then syrup on that. You get extra protein and your pancakes don’t get soggy. Also it’s delicious!
I’m a grown man but when I bring my kids to my mom’s and we stay over she busts out the pancakes. Crispy edges, fluffy in the middle, the size of dinner plates. And you gotta dip in syrup, don’t pour it over. And don’t cut it up, just fork out a piece when it’s time to eat.
Won’t disagree about feeling full after, but I wouldn’t eat any of these on the reg.
Dipping pancakes, interesting. I may need to reevaluate my opinion…
You’re correct but I still love me some pancakes. Even if they literally always make me feel gross after eating.
Personally it’s Waffles > Pancakes > French Toast, but I like all three. That being said, if I’m in the US, it’s none of the above. Those barbarians don’t serve these items with maple syrup which is abhorrent to me as a Canadian.
I don’t think I’ve been to a breakfast place that doesnt serve maple syrup with any of these.
With that being said tho, I never order any of these while I’m out to eat either because all of it in the US is low quality garbage oversaturated with sugar.
I always thought I disliked waffles until I was drunkenly peer pressured into ordering one in Brussels. Ugh. So good!
Problem is it’s flavoured corn syrup when it’s anything…
At Denny’s, sure. Probably at IHOP, but I don’t know cause I haven’t been in years. At any good mom and pop breakfast diner they do maple syrup. They tend to be a few bucks more a plate, but it’s well worth it.
Vermont, NY, and Maine all produce maple syrup. Betcha we could make loads in Alaska.
Fair enough, those are the hotspots for maple forests!
Maple doesn’t really grow in Alaska, let alone western Canada, so it’s not made there. We westerners also need to import it from Quebec.
Belgian waffles are on a whole other level for sure.
Tbf, I’m sure actual real deal Canadian Maple Syrup is also on a whole other level.
I’m being if I ever had it, I may stop getting silently disheartened when someone serves me pancakes instead of bacon and eggs 😂
You can get it at most decent stores. It’s quite a bit more expensive than the fake stuff but tends to be a lot better consistency and taste much better.
Is it maple syrup or a colored and flavored corn syrup?
Pancakes, all the time, every time.
If I ever abandon all hope, I plan to eat nothing but pancakes until I perish.
With the cheapass syrup, too – none of this frilly shit. Just good old American artificially flavored corn syrup over pancakes from a box.
For lunch today, I had leftover chocolate chip pancakes, heated them in the air fryer. And spread peanut butter on them to melt all over!
That sounds amazing! Chocolate and peanut butter (especially melty peanut butter) are so good.
I’m not nuts about any of these to be honest. I make protein blueberry pancakes once a week as a treat, but regular pancakes have way too much sugar and very little protein.
My favorite breakfast foods are matzoh brei and quiche. I guess I just prefer savory!
