It is acceptable to eat pancakes at any time as long as they are covered in brown sugar with lots of cinnamon. This is what separates us from the savages.

Any other form of pancake eating is just plain wrong, which means you shouldn't be allowed to eat them.

I will not discuss this further unless you agree with me.

What about lemon juice and icing sugar?

Now I want pancakes..

Apple compote and cream is pretty good too.

This is my favourite topping for pancakes + butter, but I wonder if its just folks of a certain generation, because nowadays people are going with blueberries, maple syrups, nutella, whipped cream etc instead.

Pancakes are just a pretty basic batter. I think that allows a pretty wide range of toppings. Sweet, savory, fruit, cream, butter, sugar, lemon juice, maple syrup, etc. Peking duck is often served with pancakes, but is not the only meat and pancake meal.

Gonna eat pancakes with marmite just to prove you wrong!

Wholly shit, man. No need to fly off the handle or anything!

Luckily I didn't have the ingredients to make pancakes at home, so I haven't sullied their good name to prove a point

I reckon you're just too proud to admit mistakes...

[–] eagleeyedtiger 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I have never made a mistake and I never will!

Still would be better with Vegemite - it's not slimy like Marmite is.

[–] eagleeyedtiger 3 points 9 months ago

I’m not particular to either so I’m ok with that
