The ONLY time waffles can be better is if they are served and dipped with warm vanilla pudding.
Other than that, pancakes are 100x more versatile.

Except waffle batter and pancake batter are NOT the same thing. Putting pancake batter into a waffle iron will not make waffles, just waffle shaped pancakes.

I mean, it's the same ingredients, just different quantities of each ingredient

Neither! French Toast Sticks all day everyday, pancakes and waffles cannot compare!
French Toast...sticks? Please tell me you make them at home and don't buy the frozen monstrosities at the store? Coincidently I made French Toast today for breakfast. They had Cinnabon bread at the store and I had to try it. Very good!

Waffles. You can make em yourself if ya own a waffle iron.
Yep! French Toast Sticks. You essentially make them like regular french toast but you just have to cut the bread into strips before you batter and fry them in butter. Once they're done you can pick them up and dip them in the maple syrup. My grandma used to make them all the time. I really need to.
Also, indeed, the store bought ones don't compare. I mean I dont hate them, but it's nowhere near the same as home made.

Cinnabon bread is cinnabon bread....it aint french toast, or "Nuns' Toast" as mama used to call it.
*Looks at profile* *sees you're from Wales.* Ah! Makes since! That's the most United Kingdom thing I've read all month!
You misunderstand me, I used the Cinnabon bread as the bread when I made French Toast. It was just sweeter and cinnamonier than normal French Toast.

To be quite honest, I'm not sure there is a United Kingdom anymore, a combination of Brexit where all the regions voted differently and the Covid pandemic where every region has it's own rules has proven that. Northern Ireland will within my lifetime join back with the south, and Scotland has always hated the English anyway (with good reason, we treated em like shit for 400 years and more) so they'll be getting another referendum on devolution shortly and I can't see that we'll con them into staying like we did before.*Looks at profile* *sees you're from Wales.* Ah!

Barra brith, like my Mummy taught me. Pancakes and waffles are for beginners. And Yorkshire Puddings are lovely.

Ooh I like a slice of barra brith, with proper butter on it. Have you ever had a Borrowdale tea bread? That's very nice too.

I don't even know what that is! I make barra brith. With butter on it, yes.

That shit reminds me the "pain au chocolat" vs "chocolatine" battle in France.
Nobody cares, but it's still a very strong war.
And to make everyone angry : No one but French can talk about food.
You're all disgusting faux-food shit eaters for us.

Pancakes are better than waffles, French toast takes the win over both

And frog's legs, and cruelly tortured goose liver, and tortured veal, and well, the list goes on. The whole "French invented cooking" thing is total bullshit. French cuisine is a bunch of disgusting nonsense that should be outlawed across the world. The only real "contribution" they, and by they I mean 1 guy a few hundred years ago, was to define the majority of today's sauce bases - not that anyone else couldn't have figured out butter + onions + milk + flour.

Crumpets are great, but not on the same level. That's a fight in the bread isle not baking/ frozen foods (if you like inferiority)

Yeah it's always been that way, France vs the rest of the civilised world, oh whoops I misspoke, meant to say France vs the civilised world.
I've never tried frog legs, but my father has. He claims they are actually really good. While primarily a dish in the southern states, frog legs aren't actually that weird.
You did miss one weird as hell French cuisine though, which should have been at the top of your list... A whole freaking calf head! I believe they remove the eyes and a few other parts and toss pretty much the whole damn thing in a pot with vegetables and boil it. Apparently, it's considered a delicacy over there.

I had them once when I was in my early teens. They were the proverbial "tastes like chicken". Nothing special, nothing bad, but they're still the stereotypical weird ass French thing along side snails. They're common in southern cuisine because southern cuisine is derived from French.
