I find it a little funny that you're taking this pancake argument seriously enough to go into semantic detail.

It is irrelevant. If the majority of other restaurants serve great burgers, then the majority of places to have burgers serve great burgers. However, the majority of burgers sold taste like sh*t because McDonald's sells more than the others. You're using one place, who happens to have many locations, be the "be all, end all."

Anyway, pancakes and bacon should never be served on the same plate.

Don't come lookin' for pancakes in my kitchen. I'll not be dirtying additional plates just for free-standing bacon.

I rarely eat sweet type foods for breakfast. If I do, I know I get shaky an hour later. I must have protein (MEAT) in my breakfast. I'll always take waffles over pancakes. And I never use syrup. A dab of butter and some whipped cream with sliced fruit on top.

Just cook some sausage isntead of bacon. It's the better compliment for this anyway.

pancakes go better with sausages then bacon sure. However Humpty's, Smitty's, the pancake house, perkins, all serve pancakes on a separate plate.

There might be an exception if you're ordering a pancake meal that comes with two strips of bacon or something, I can see them putting it on the same plate then. Most of the time I have one plate with eggs/hashbrowns/bacon, and one with the pancakes. When I've ordered a pancake meal then usually I haven't gotten any meat with it, at least at the pancake house, which is where I go for pancakes. I usually just make my own though.

Smitty's does not. Everytime I've seen it served, it's on the same plate.

I thought of an exception and edited. Does it fit into that category? I've usually gotten pancakes as a side to a breakfast meal, so maybe that's what's driving my thinking.

I'm not saying sausage and pancakes is bad, btw. It is also awesome.

But I can't collect the drippings as easily from sausage when I make it from home.

I was only thinking of pancakes as the meal, not as a side. I would expect most sides to come on a separate plate.

Anyway, sausage > bacon with pancakes.

Just watched the video. I knew something was off when I saw the ratio of liquid to flour he was using, and also a sugarless recipe. He made crepes, not pancakes.

I don't understand why anyone would order pancakes at a restaurant. They're the cheapest easiest things in the world to make at home.


some people can't even make carrot sticks, unfortunately.

I shall not bow to the pressures of Canadians! On that path lies madness, hockey and milk that is sold by the bag!

Not unless your bags of milk can do something about the 600 billion Mexicans who cross the border illegally each year and take our jerbs.




Actually, I'm of the mind that our economy down here is fairly stable. It just took a correction after spending twenty some odd years artificially inflated thanks to some hideously stupid in hindsight decisions on the part of a number of elected officials. Sure it's wobbling a bit as it finds a new equilibrium, but it'll right itself within the next few years. So unless you all have a time machine, that's not gonna help much either.

Why do I see only sausage vs. bacon posts? Sausage goes great with bacon.

maybe that is just an east-coaster thing... I've not seen milk sold in a bag round here since 1988

I was really disappointed when I found out the milk bags are stuck inside a specially made pitcher for actual pouring purposes. I thought you guys just milked them like an udder.

Could be. I've never seen anyone purchase them in years (while I'm shopping) but they're still here, so I assume someone does. No idea if it exists in Central Canada or not.

I'm in Ontario and if you want more than 2L at once, you have to buy a bag.
