OK – it’s been argued on Buzz Out Loud, in our guild forums, and all over the internet. Time to see the numbers:

Ok,

So I don’t really know where this came from, but it’s waffles.
Jeff O'Hara July 18th, 2007 at 1:32 pm 2

Nothing beats light and fluffy pankakes from a pancake house. I can never seem to make them good.

A vote for waffles is a vote for super-awesome-coolness, a vote for pancakes is a vote for debt, paper cuts, and BSOD’s! Choose wisely people!!!
Nick Schmidt July 18th, 2007 at 1:35 pm 4

Very very hard to decided.

but everyone once in a while. I like the chocolate chip pancakes..m mmmmm
Jonathan C July 18th, 2007 at 1:36 pm 5

you can add the same to waffles and wrap it around a stick of butter ala the simpsons
Kevin C. July 18th, 2007 at 1:37 pm 6

What about the biscuits?? Where all my biscuit peoples at?? AWW HELL NAWW V-BEL, IT’S ON!!!
Kevin July 18th, 2007 at 1:39 pm 7

Is there an International House of Waffles? No.
FMGreen Steve July 18th, 2007 at 1:47 pm 8

Until they introduce “Eggo Pancakes”, which are frozen until I deem it’s time to warm them up, I’ll be sticking to the waffles.
Freshly cooked, pancakes don’t stand a chance – waffles win; hands down!

Dammit, now I’m hungrah.
JFSD July 18th, 2007 at 1:48 pm 9

Pancakes if they’re Swedish with lingonberries and whipped cream, or waffles with bananas and walnuts with a pad of real butter oozing between them…
tim July 18th, 2007 at 1:48 pm 10

Go pancakes go!
adam July 18th, 2007 at 1:52 pm 11

pancakes, waffles. It all tastes rubbish now Veronica has left the (BOL) building
Nicole Lee July 18th, 2007 at 2:01 pm 12

Crepes trumps all!!!
Bobacus July 18th, 2007 at 2:02 pm 13

Has to be pancakes for me. Seeing as I asked my wife to marry me in a IHOP.
Thragmol T Thragmol July 18th, 2007 at 2:13 pm 14

WAFFLES!
CoolB July 18th, 2007 at 2:13 pm 15

Pancakes are obviously superior, I mean not only do they taste better but they are supported by every OS. You can abbreviate it with PC, you can make different kinds (regular, blueberry, chocolate chip, etc) so it’s like open source and lets not forget the International House of Pancakes, aka iHop. See, it has an “i” at the front so it must be mac friendly.

Although I also agree with Nicole Lee, crepes are good too.
Zewt July 18th, 2007 at 2:27 pm 16

I cannot believe pancakes are winning! What is wrong with you people!
Veronica July 18th, 2007 at 2:28 pm 17

Nicole, crepes are not an option, therefore they do not exist.
Glugory July 18th, 2007 at 2:43 pm 18

French toast blows both of em’ out of the water.
Thragmol T Thragmol July 18th, 2007 at 2:55 pm 19

Your doom slowly approaches Panackes.

Resistance…. is silly.
William July 18th, 2007 at 3:12 pm 20

If you vote for pancakes, the terrorists win

Viva la waffle revolucion!
Pete H July 18th, 2007 at 3:15 pm 21

Pancakes for the win!!!

Look on the bottom of a work boot.. it looks like a waffle. after that thought who can eat them..
DECjr July 18th, 2007 at 3:20 pm 22

FTW — For The Waffles! hilarious BOL podcast!
Marc July 18th, 2007 at 3:21 pm 23

52/48 right now…PC in the lead!
Daryl July 18th, 2007 at 3:58 pm 24

Waffles are pancakes 2.0 the grooves for trapping the contents are far superior to flat, boring pancakes.
ibookfast July 18th, 2007 at 5:12 pm 25

Waffles are the best… with real butta, and real maple syrup… ah yeaa. don’t forget some whipped cream just for fun.
Nelson July 18th, 2007 at 6:57 pm 26

Pancakes. Maple syrup. Butter. Nothing else need be said. Well, I suppose one could also say sausage.

Pax,
Nelson
Steve Woolf July 18th, 2007 at 7:00 pm 27

EZ. pancakes FTW.
Nick July 18th, 2007 at 7:06 pm 28

THIS IS PANCAKES!

(Sorry, obligatory 300 reference)
Casey July 18th, 2007 at 7:16 pm 29

Mmm…breakfast. I love waffles from none other…Waffle House!
jose8am July 18th, 2007 at 7:48 pm 30

Waffles! and that illustration was a little bias. the pancakes look delicuious and the waffles not that much in that picture. a bit unfair V. come on… have waffles tmrw. you know you want to!
FMGreen Steve July 18th, 2007 at 8:02 pm 31

These results are disturbing and depressing. Fear not, Waffles; you’ll always be #1 to me.
bunnyhero July 18th, 2007 at 8:22 pm 32

WAFFLES!

although i like pancakes too.

but…

WAFFLES!
Anders July 18th, 2007 at 8:37 pm 33

OMG … I thought I was eating pancakes and then it turns out, that I was really eating crepes!?!?! Had to look it up on wikipedia.

Well, if You go to the pancake Wikipedia, there are pictures of crepes, so I guess they still qualify for pancakes.

Pancakes got my vote!
Trish M. July 18th, 2007 at 9:37 pm 34

Boy this was the wrong week to attempt low-carb dieting. I voted waffles. But there *should* be a third choice: “Mom’s Pancakes”. Because Mom makes the yummiest thin stack of flapjacks around. Everywhere else makes big doughy flavorless frisbees.

Oh dear God I’m tempted to break out the griddle at 1:37 am…
G July 18th, 2007 at 9:48 pm 35

I like both, but it seems that pancakes are easier to screw up. Can’t stand mealy pancakes. So I must vote for waffles.
Woody56292 July 18th, 2007 at 10:37 pm 36

light and fluffy pancakes with fresh New England maple syrup…. yummy

Pancakes FTW!
Tim July 19th, 2007 at 6:03 am 37

pancakes all the way!
Cloudy July 19th, 2007 at 8:16 am 38

Hoping to see you represent at the pancakes vs waffles AIE event coming soon to an arena near you.
Patrick July 19th, 2007 at 8:19 am 39

I like both, but I like pancakes more than waffles. I sill like waffles though.
ae July 19th, 2007 at 9:00 am 40

hey V. I have just have to say that while I was listening to the show and T and M joined forces against you, I had your back!
The worst was to hear Jason (who you should have taken the opportunity to fire at that point) took their side as well!

Pancakes are the best. Especially is you have my family recipe!

PANCAKES ARE THE FUTURE!

hehe
ae
Googleman81 July 19th, 2007 at 9:53 am 41

Kato July 19th, 2007 at 12:04 pm 42

I don’t know how someone could think it would be anything but Pancakes at the top of the breakfast pantheon.
John Schmitt July 19th, 2007 at 1:51 pm 43

Pancakes rock! Waffles good too but not easy to get the butter/margarine in all those nooks and cranies. BTW – veronica i’m going to miss you with Molly and Tom. Best of luck, ill be watching.
Ixxi July 19th, 2007 at 1:54 pm 44

Pancakes FTW!!!!!!! I lovez me some pancakes!!!!!
bonaparte July 19th, 2007 at 5:37 pm 45

Ok, Waffles rule!! if anyone is ever in Los Angeles (this is for you as well Veronica) you should stop by “Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles” BEST WAFFLES EVER!!!!
Clee July 19th, 2007 at 7:46 pm 46

Waffles!!! Waffles!!! Waffles!!! m m m…
Honorablesauce July 20th, 2007 at 6:19 am 47

Waffles are the ultimate combination or crunchy and fluffy. They are also the best syrup distribution tool ever as a result of their space-age syrup pockets.
jill July 21st, 2007 at 5:34 am 48

I do believe the Waffles pwn.
Shalin July 21st, 2007 at 9:16 am 49

Personally, I like French Toast the best, then Waffles, then pancakes. I’ve just yet to have pancakes that are easy to eat like waffles are – you see, it’s a user interface issue.

If Apple made pancakes, the iPancake, if you will, I may be compelled to change my mind. Especially Apple iPancakes with spice widgets like iCinnamon, etc…

Best,
Shalin

oh – Happy Birthday!
Judyna P. July 21st, 2007 at 1:20 pm 50

Add me to the list of French Toast lovers!

There’s something about eating a pancake, it seems like I have too much expectations for a pancake experience, it’s just missing something for me. As for waffles, they just feel way too heavy.
Josh July 22nd, 2007 at 2:42 pm 51

Gotta be the pancakes… can’t beat them! Granted, I’m aussie, and I’ve never even seen waffles, so maybe I don’t know what I’m missing…
Mike July 23rd, 2007 at 10:13 am 52

Pancake! That was a fantastic episode, LOL

Pancakes FTW!
Aaron Bassett July 25th, 2007 at 1:20 am 53

Maybe its just a Scottish thing but the most popular breakfast here is either a sausage roll (square sausage[1] in a roll[2]), a bacon roll (same thing but with 2 rashers of bacon) or a doubler. Which is a roll with both sausage & bacon.

Probably the most unhealthy way to start the day ever but damn they’re a brilliant hangover cure

(( for the super hangover there is also the breakfast roll[3], which is pretty much a heart-attack wrapped in bread ))

Mike C July 25th, 2007 at 10:36 pm 54

It looks like pancakes rule while waffles drool. Maybe you wafflers can now move onto another losing battle, like how hash browns rule over french fries (I don’t think so.)
