    Randi, do you mean to say that Flapjacks is NOT another word for
    pancakes?? They're the same thing.

    Gini, I always turn my cookies over too, just never thought about it much.

    I could not possibly eat a cookie/biscuit/cake upside down. I have never re-built a burger though.

    I've never seen anything else called a flapjack - Randi, what is considered a flapjack there?


    flap·jack (flāp'jāk')
    n. See pancake.

    pan·cake (pān'kāk')
    n. A thin cake made of batter that is poured onto a hot greased surface and cooked on both sides until brown. Also called flannel cake, flapjack, griddlecake, hotcake; also called regionally battercake.

    A flapjack and a pancake are totally different!

    A pancake is flat, round and made from milk, flour and eggs. A flapjack is a chunk of oats cooked together in honey or syrup, sometimes you can put raisons and dried fruit in it too.

    Pancake



    Flapjack



    I never knew you called pancakes flapjacks over there, lol. I suppose you learn something new every day!

    you didn't realize there was a top or a bottom to a cookie!!

    it all goes to the same place.......... is what my dad always says...
    well - what he says I can't type here - it is a family friendly site.


    Anyone else if they get something a bit too uhhhh done (ok burnt) flip it over so that the unburnt side is up -
    Like it makes a difference in taste (its still going to taste BURNT! ) but its prettier!!

    I never really thought about this ,, but you right, you have to eat a cookie with the pretty side facing up. oreos would b an issue if you were flpping it over and over trying to find the right side to start from, that kinda cracks me up. what i like about this place is we can have silly convos like that that are not necessarily pet related. what a cool place!

    Well as far as I'm concerned Sara is right. They are all the same to me!!!! OMD, this thread is phunny!!!!

    Now I don't eat cookies but I do like a bun with my salad at lunch and I simply cannot eat the bun upside down. Same thing for sammies, burgers and hot dogs. They must be right side up.

    Isn't it great to be silly sometimes???
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Oh yes, I do that too.

    The picture Miss Z posted is definitely a flapjack.

    The cookie has to be flat side down for me. You can't really call the ones I make pretty but they sure do taste good.

    Flapjack!!
    Miss Z, you know what you're talking about! The flapjack I got in The Lamb Inn, looked pretty much the same. I had never tried them before, so had to ask what they were though, before I ordered. They're delicious!

    Think I'm going to make some tomorrow - if I can find the recipe!

    Eating a hot dog is just not possible, unless the right side is up!
