Yeah, I avoid them, but I prefer waffles if that is my only option.  Either is a simple carb with sugar on top, zero nutritive value beyond calories.

is there a difference besides how they're cooked?

I also avoid them, don't remember the last time I had one

Waffle batter is different, a bit, from PC batter.  Both are just simple carbs.

Batter up?

If anything, I'd have to go with French Toast (no powdered sugar). At least it's dipped in eggs.

My wife had never had "French toast" until a few weeks back when she tried it on the cruise.  She said "meh".

She said they do have something somewhat similar in France where they treat older bread with egg something, but they don't call it that.  They don't call "French fries" that either.

Waffles.  Though I have a great mix from the Ozarks that makes spectacular pancakes.  It's kind of wasted on waffles, the unique flavor doesn't come through like it will in pancakes.  I could eat them without butter or syrup.

Fried potatoes are good. So are mashed.

If I have to choose one, waffles. Pancakes have little texture and they're basically inedible w/o syrup, and as I said in another thread I don't love sweet stuff, so I try to avoid syrup. A waffle you can put other stuff on--like maybe peanut butter and sliced banana. And a waffle you can eat with just butter as well. 

But... I generally avoid both.

I'm a fan of both. If I had to choose one for the rest of my life it would probably be pancakes because I feel like there are more and better variations of them. But the texture of waffles can be just the right thing.

With the recipes that we use, waffles have less sugar and a lot more butter, but they are, of course, both loaded with simple carbs. I often eat pancakes without syrup, opting for fruits (normally berries) instead.

Of course they aren't good for me, but that's not the point. And they aren't as bad as a Dutch Baby (nor do they taste as good). That's some seriously sinful breakfast food.
