2. NO ADVERTISING

This community is for sharing pictures of awesome food, not a platform to advertise.

3. NO MEMES

4. PICTURES SHOULD BE OF FOOD

Delicious waffle aside, I really enjoy this photo but I can't put my finger on why. It almost has a weird liminality.

Anyway, fuck yeah waffle!

It does, doesn't it?

I think it's the warmer lights. Subconsciously we know that stuff is supposed to stay there only temporarily, I suppose.

Also the dichotomy between a perfectly presentable plate of food and the discordant mess surrounding it.

That waffle will inevitably be ruined by corn syrup. Diners never have any decent maple syrup, and I’m convinced that it’s meant as a personal slight against me.

I work for big corn syrup and can confirm we're coming for you

Try honey when they don't have real syrup. It's certainly different but maybe that's a good thing since it invites a less direct comparison.

[–] VelvetGentleman@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Do you think they're serving actual honey and not honey flavored corn syrup?

They are here, honey is a protected label so if they aren't using real honey then it's honey sauce.

That’s a good solution… I’m, frankly, upset that I’ve been settling for fruit syrups and whipped cream for as long as I have. Silly to say but sincerely, you’ve made breakfast diners infinitely more accessible to me.

This is a fruit salad on an edible plate

Somebody's jealous that they didn't order a waffle.

[–] Gingerlegs@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Waffle House don’t fuck around

[–] MysticKetchup@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

That is the correct amount of fruit to put on a waffle

Leslie Knope approves.
