You know, as if toast and pancakes are somehow equals. Who the fuck would ever choose a piece of toast over pancakes? Nobody. I get asked that and it's just like, what? I can actually get a plate of pancakes with hot syrup, delicious stuff, and you're asking me if I would want toast instead of that? Do I look like some kind of moron?

French toast is superior.

French toast is superior.

Well sure but that's an entrée on its own. I'm talking about the extras you get included with an omelet, skillet, etc.

 

[Mistershine.]

Toast > pancakes

 

[dr_octagon]

you can butter and jam toast

 

[Bladed Thesis]

People actually order the filler, low quality pancakes for the side instead of toast?

Interesting.

 

[Mossybrew]

I will never understand toast eaters. It's just bland filler when you could be eating something with actual flavor and substance.

 

[Amory]

I'd almost always rather have toast. I put my eggs on it

Pancakes are a mood. If I'm having pancakes I probably don't have much to do for the rest of the day.

I would almost always go for the toast over pancakes.

 

[Svengoolie007]

Man, ya'll are nuts. Everyone I go with always gets pancakes and we laugh about how anyone would ask for toast.

How much do you weigh?

 

[Mihos]

Pancakes are way too filling to be a side item

 

[infinitys_7th]

I'd rather have biscuits and gravy than toast or pancakes. Toast and gravy can be good too, though, if it is thick sliced and toasted right.

 

[Davey Cakes]

I've never been to a breakfast place that let you substitute pancakes for toast for no additional cost.

I'm not huge into toast, but if the restaurant makes their own bread and offers a hearty multigrain then it can be worthwhile.

 

[MaestroMike]

If ur not trying to eat too much carbs/sugar in the morning then you go with the toast. Pancakes and syrup and butter would just make me sleepy. If I was off that mourning/day, sure, I'd probably go with the pancakes even moreso if I didn't have a starchy meal the day/night before.

[sackings]

I mean if your eating out often then toast is the healthy choice. For me its always pancakes cuz i dont go out for breakfast much. Usually the bread and pancakes are of similar quality so even shitty pancakes > shitty toast IMO

Ackshully you boomers never heard of the revolution in toast called avocado toast.

Maybe somebody prefers toast to pancakes? I know I'd rather have whoalmeal toast and cottage cheese than pancakes.

I never understood it until I made it for myself. Avocado + salt & pepper on a slice of toast with some bacon is so good.

 

[Rentahamster]

you can butter and jam toast

You can butter and jam anything, with the right tools and courage of conviction.

By the way, when you buy a toasted sandwich with eggs, bacon, and a tomato slice with a side of potatoes/hashbrowns.

It's the same thing as ordering one of the basic platters but the food isnt built into a sandwich for you.

But the platter will cost more.

 

[EverydayBeast]

Straight up steal.

Me. I don't like pancakes. Like toast tho. Damn them for giving you a choice. lol

I agree with this statement. From a palette standpoint, toast goes well with more dishes as a side. Pancakes feel more like a main dish to order.

 

[deafmedal]

One of my favorite things to do while away for work is to hit up a breakfast/brunch spot and grab an outdoor seat (great benefit of c19 imo), enjoy a tasty meal and a few cups of coffee and people watch. I generally don’t watch what I eat on Saturdays so waffles, french toast or pancakes are almost always on the plate.

I love when a place has fancy pancakes. This one local chain here in San Diego has shit like pineapple upside down pancakes, they will let you sub one for the toast with the egg platters (for a mark up but I ain’t paying lol) so that’s nice

 

[navii]

In Australia pancakes themselves are the main meal. Toast is a side. It's not a simple choice, you choose a pancake if you want something sweet or you get a toast with your savoury meal. It's more of a choice between sweet or savoury.

 

[Raven117]

I’d get toast because I’m not a fatty

 

[Come On Tars]

Never experienced pancakes as a replacement for toast. That's crazy

 

[nush]

Pancakes are way too stodgy for a breakfast side. I always go for toast.

 

[O.v.e.rlord]

fuck you OP, WAFFLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[BigBooper]

I'd probably pick toast honestly. Don't like pancakes. It's just wet sweet bread. Now waffles are a completely different story.

 

[Nester99]

I agree they are not equal. Sometimes I don’t want an entire extra breakfast (pancakes) with my meal. Sometimes...

If I'm ordering eggs over easy, I'm going to want toast to soak up the yolks.

Also textural contrast is a good thing, sometimes i want some crunch that pancakes just can't provide. Pancakes are probably 4th option for me for generic breakfast carb. French toast > waffles > toast > pancake. If we add biscuits and bagels into the mix, pancakes drop even further.

If I'm carb binging and getting a whole stack of pancakes that's one thing, but as a side item to a regular breakfast, pancakes are pointless.

I don't understand why anyone would eat anything with avocado, its absolutely repugnant.

 

[GeekyDad]

...Who the fuck would ever choose a piece of toast over pancakes? ...

Depends on my mood on a given day, really. I agree, most days (since I don't eat out that often and pancakes are a rare treat) I'll go with the cakes, but sometimes I'm just not up for something so heavy and sweet.

 

[poppabk]

Eggs need toast.
Fuck any place that makes you pay a toast tax.

Toast is a good way to start your day. Pancakes are a good way to make me nearly shit my pants then go back to bed.

 

[showernota]

Pancakes are a solo breakfast meal. If I'm getting a side with an omelet or skillet, I'll go with toast.

 

[Maiden Voyage]

Sorry haters, I got toast with my breakfast this morning. Toast crew 4 life.

 

[ReBurn]

I had French Toast and sausage at IHOP this morning.

I agree, options are terrible they should just force pancakes down your throat when you walk in
