You can talk about breakfast all you like but no one would ever eat pancakes, waffles or even french toast without maple syrup, we invented it, we make the best.
Ummm... its tree sap... I think you mean you discovered it...? )
It isn't pure tree sap, that would be ridiculous! Rather the impressive and refined task of its preparation, not a recipe per se but it isn't straight from a maple to bottle.


This child begs to differ...

:p

I remember watching a documentary about the making of maple syrup.

Very little is actually done to the sap. The water is evaporated off, but the method in which it's done must be very precise.

It's also much more healthy than you'd think for something that sweet. I also know that there are different 'grades' of syrup, from light to dark. Light being a more mild flavour, while dark is the good shit.
You have no idea brother, ever had the opaque stuff? will blow the socks off your pancakes, your vastly inferior, painfully thin, overly crisp pancakes.
I'd probably skip the food and drink it straight from the bottle.

I love maple syrup :D
You know you can do that already, the syrup also comes in crystalline candy form too. It's sort of like a cross between caramel and the mushy yet somehow grainy feeling of eating sugar from the box.

Bah, damn you. I was just about to hit the sack, but after this thread I have got to eat something!
No pancakes at home, unfortunetly. :'(
Better pop to the 24 hour shop and get yourself some flour, eggs and milk.

I'm not asking.

I'm telling.

Aww, I would expect maple syrup sweets to look like amber, you know, near transparent.

Ah, true pancakes. That delectable treasure of a breakfast...
Not to say that our colonial ones can't be good, either. Their fluffiness makes for excellent storage capabilities should you, say, bake chocolate morsels into them.


Pictured: Chocolate-chip doorstops.

As for the waffles...
One does not simply choose between pancakes and waffles. A conclusion is simply too much for the rational mind to achieve. Consider the following debate:
[blockquote]"So... what should we get for breakfast?"
"Waffles sound good."
"What about some pancakes?"
"I dunno. Wouldn't mind either, really."[/blockquote]
The intensity simply reduces lesser minds to shreds.

Maple syrup is... Don't even get me started on real maple syrup. If there's a number one thing I had to say you Canadians do for us Americans, it would indeed be the provision of that wonderful ambrosia you get from your trees. The second would be... well, it would also be the paper we get from your other trees. The third would be BioWare. Anyway, the point is, we like your syrup.

You can get it on sticks like that, like a lolly. But that is the sweetened stuff... the more pure it is the more opaque it is! And the thicker too if I remember correctly...! :S I agree though, it is good stuff!

Original concept came from the native Canadians, but the process that is used today was created and refined by the Europeans when we took over...! I don't know about you, but I feel that link has enough substance to claim it as British...? :p

Pancakes are what made Hellboy loose all of his powers. Just sayin'.
How is that anything but a good thing :D

Pancakes shall purge the unclean.
Because of Hellboy eating pancakes, whenever I'm at a diner / restaurant and don't know what to order, I order pancakes. I'm fairly indecisive, so I order pancakes a lot.

Pony pasties are good too.

I don't usually eat horse for breakfast, but I think I'll make an exception.

The ones with rainbows on them are the tastiest.

I could care less about wars and food names and who-came-up-with-what-first-or-second-and-why-its-better-now-or-then.
Only thing that truly matters, is how they freakin TASTE!!!

I love most pancakes, and all related pancake creations. And i just recently discovered Crepes, (or whatever the hell you feel like calling them) And they are "HELL YESSS, More please." (which is probably why i gained like 10 pounds.)

Thank you all for the delicious pictures.

Sorry.

I really had to fix that, I know it makes me a tool, but I won't be able to get to sleep tonight if I don't.

And with that, I'm off to bed, safe in the knowledge that I've made the world a substantially better place by just existing.

You're welcome.
