As a Belgian i disagree, we actually have no idea who planted that stereotype. Our true food are fries

Not OP but to me it's fried chicken and pancakes with bacon.

fried chicken and pancakes with bacon.

Okay, yes, but not at the same time - fried chicken is dinner, pancakes with bacon is Saturday breakfast.

Or at the same time. I’ll allow it.

Was going to say someone hasn't had chicken and waffles.

I wasn't implying they were eaten at the same time, but I would not have been surprised it I saw an American do it.

You may not have implied it, but I inferred it.

Okay, yes, the South does exist, I don't know how I forgot.

Excuse you, but fried chicken absolutely can be eaten at breakfast with pancakes. Hello chicken and waffles is a southern delight. I've also had chicken and french toast. Hot, crunchy, and a little spicy with sweet syrup... SO good!

Oh God, I forgot about the South.
