Chicken and Waffles? I’ve never understood the connection. Two great foods. But foods that should not be eaten together.

Who eats this? Pregnant women?

And besides - isn’t this a black thing? If I ate this mess, wouldn’t I be culturally appropriating the black culture?

Sheesh!

You are wrong, so very, very wrong.

I think its origin is in jazz clubs where patrons would stay so late they couldn’t decide if they wanted supper or breakfast.

I agree with you. In fact, that combination has always sounded so off-puting to me that I would never even try it.

Oh, you're missing out my friend. Don't be afraid to try it, you'll like it. If you want, dip your foot in the water by trying a Wendy's honey-butter chicken biscuit first and then move on to the real thing. Chicken and waffles are pretty amazing.

THANK YOU. I've never understood it either. I've heard it called a great, traditional combination, but I had never heard of it until about 5 years ago. The idea is nauseating to me, at least.
