And while we're at it, what's your opinion of pancakes and French toast?

I like waffles and pancakes but I'm not a fan of french toast.

Of the three, I like certain kinds of pancakes the best. I don't care for the other two.

I love french toast so much! When I make it at home… I whisk some eggs, milk and Cinnamon… splash the bread on both sides and let it sizzle… I also make a ton extra and freeze the left overs so when I don’t want to destroy my kitchen with mess and dishes.. I can just throw em from the freezer into my toaster and bam! Instant awesome breakkie!

When I make pancakes I use the Jiffy mix recipe for waffles cause I find their thicker and fluff up as opposed to being flat lifeless disks…

Best recipe I've found for pancakes (I use kefir instead of buttermilk), better than any mix I've bought, and great tips for perfecting for pancakes:

Otherwise pancakes are often kinda meh, and I apparently don't like maple syrup enough for it to redeem all pancakes.

French toast is tasty but I haven't perfected or found a great recipe. Waffles requires yet another kitchen appliance which just isn't happening right now. Which means it all depends on the restaurant.

Aren't buttermilk and kefir basically the same thing? Now I haven't had american buttermilk so I can't really give my opinion on the matter, but I've heard something or the other about them being the same thing.

They're pretty similar; kefir, buttermilk, and yogurt are all kinda the same thing. In the US what you get at the grocery store is probably going to be standardized around different textures and flavors though. And in the case of yogurt, 50 percent sugar and added random flavors.

Pancakes, waffles, French toast, in that order. Waffles are amazing, but nothing beats an old fashioned diner pancake with butter and syrup.

Love them, especially when they're nice and crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. Lather it in butter and pour on the maple syrup. Can't get enough.

Won't eat 'em: way too carbie.

All of the above. With sausage or bacon or ham, scrambled eggs (well done; runny eggs are a conspiracy to torment innocent tastebuds), and hashbrowns.
