    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?

    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.

    You should make some and give it a try. You never know you may like it.

    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.

    This sounds like a regional food item . Like hear in the south west there is a lot of Mexican food . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enchilada There are differences in the food between hear in AZ and what is called TEx-Mex . desert rat
