I don't understand about chicken and waffles. Is it good? Where/how did the combination originate? What meal is it; what time of day do you eat it?
it can be a anytime meal its a southern thing that is for sure. I like pork and pancakes myself fuck chicken and waffles.
Tyrsonswood, google it in images. I see lots of restaurants dedicated to serving this. I know near here there is a Gladys Knight's Chicken and Waffles Restaurant.
This is probably how it happened https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJLDF6qZUX0&feature=player_embedded"]VINTAGE 80'S REESES PEANUT BUTTER CUPS COMMERCIAL W WALKERS - YouTube hotwater
Some historians believe the dish goes back to the late 19th century, when Southern African-Americans , recently freed from slavery , began migrating to the Northern United States. According to author John T. Edge: "My guess is that it comes from the days. when someone would go out in the morning and wring a chicken's neck and fry it for breakfast. Preparing a breakfast bread with whatever meat you have on the hoof, so to speak, comes out of the rural tradition".
some people like it on both ,some like it just on the waffle, and some people like myself like none . I just use my waffle as if it was a piece of bread.
