So why do black people eat chicken with waffles?
I assume for the same reason other people do
it tastes good
More mayo white boi?
;^)
Chicken and waffles came from Harlem originally -- at least that's the story I've heard. But where I live, everyone loves it.

It's a southern thing I think. Post Civil War reconstruction era. Though apparently Thomas Jefferson was one of the first people recorded eating it, after returning from the low country with a waffle iron.

>I'd never even think of combining sweet and savory
Why are you here?

It's actually Amish iirc, but they eat it with gravy instead of syrup. Thatt's how folk in Baltimore eat it too.

As a European myself, I have to admit Tex Mex and Cajun cooking is pretty good. On the other hand, what the fuck does non-Mediterranean Europe even have to offer?
>M-Muh fish and chips (seriously? Adding fried fish to French(!) Fries is an innovation?)
>M-Muh meatballs
>M-Muh mashed vegetables
Non-Mediterranean Europe and non-Cajun/Texan America are about on par I'd say, meaning they're both culinary wastelands.
the fried chicken is probably leftovers from dinner.

>French(!) Fries
Do you mean to imply that french fries are, in point of fact, French?
>>7509029
Yes I do. What, do you actually believe that stale myth that they're Belgian? An unsourced myth that not only requires the Belgian population of the time to be richer than they were, but actually have access to the potato before it was introduced in the region?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_fries#Belgium
The earliest reliable written references all point to France.

No thanks, Frog.

Very well, which country of origin do you propose on what basis with what credible citation backing it up?

>went to Firefly restaurant in Panama City beach Florida a couple years ago
>had chicken and waffles
>was fucking delicious
>never had it again
It was a suit and evening dress type of place. But we were with a wedding party so we showed up in beach garb. Shit was hilarious.
Chicken with hot sauce and waffles with blueberry jam with a nice tall glass of milk.
It's tasty as fuck.

well the black folk in Baltimore eat it pretty similarly to how the Pennsylvania Dutch do, they just don't shred the chicken it first.
>>7508844
kanker lekker

You are not the first Dutchman I have talked to who doesn't understand mixing sweet and savory. Do you people not have that over there? Maple syrup goes very well with fried chicken
>>7508997
nigga this is dutch cuisine.
>>7508844
Idk but the local place here that makes fried chicken and waffles makes the waffles savory, the only sweet aspects of the dish are the sauce you get with it which is sweet and spicy and the chicken breading has a hint of sweetness in it
Straight banging meal, the chicken is boneless too which makes getting the perfect bite super easy
Fuck, now I think I'm gonna have to go there for lunch tomorrow
>>7508875
Nobody in Baltimore actually eats chicken and waffles.
>>7508775
What does /ck/ put on the chicken? Syrup, honey mustard, other, or nothing?

Yeah, sure. What part of the city do you live in?
>>7510022
Edmondson Village
pls no bully
>>7510042
Somebody from EV or EA on 4chan. Guess it is a small world after all. But my statement still stands.
>>7509916
I've seen it on the menu of every breakfast place I've been to in Baltimore, which is admittedly only 3 places, but that's still more than I've seen in any other east coast city.
>>7510172
Kind of want to know more about you. Sane people don't live in the village.
>>7510238
I'm a different guy, I'm from Norfolk. I just have friends in Baltimore that I visit on occasion.
>>7510269
Hmm. How much heroin do you snort?
>>7510284
None at all
>>7510310
Good to know.
>>7508775
Because it is shockingly delicious. The salty seasoning from the chicken, the sweetness of the syrup, the texture of the chicken protein with the crunchy malty waffle.
I am no fan of black people but there are moments when I thank goodness we had them as slaves.
I recently tried chicken and waffles for the first time (with a side of cheesy bacon grits) holy fuck its amazing. The mix of heavy flavors works wonderfully, however I just want to fall asleep on my couch after...
>>7509906
That is fucking, incredibly incorrect. Boneless? Fuck off with that shit.
Spam and jelly sandwich > chicken and waffles

What I read/heard in the French Fries Museum in Belgium.
French Fries are Belgian you cheeky cunt.
