What's so hard about making pancake batter from the basic
ingredients: lumps are good!

Crepes aren't difficult; just tilt the pan quickly after pouring a scant
amount of batter into a very hot pan. But you knew that, Mark!

My crepes have never turned out particularly thick. How thin do you want
them? They do need to be thick enough to fill and roll up. But we're not
talking burritos here LOL I have never made "dessert crepes" since sweet
isn't my thing; maybe they need to be paper thin. Crepes filled with diced
chicken & sauteed mushrooms topped with a white wine sauce... Mmmm

Heh, haven't had a flame in my kitchen since 1984 and I've never used the

Might be useful for making crepes.

A spray application could provide a uniform
thin coating, like spray paint.

No help; it's not really a spray, it's like the whipped cream cans.

Why not just buy them premade if you're that lazy? They sell htem that way
in my stores, some even have the syrup cooked in. They do everything but
come predigested.

If you want to make THICK crepes, yes. That works.

I was thinking about THIN crepes, what ordinarily is
now made by modifying an old 78 RPM record player
for the spin-coating process.

And that technique uses the OUTSIDE of the pan,
not the interior. You dip the pan into the
batter, then hold it upside down over the flame.

They also sell hotdogs already cooked and in the bun. Cindy wouldn't buy
those, either. It's all for the conspicuous consumption crowd.

Crepes was my first thought too, not so sure about something that
comes out like a string from a cheez whiz type can though You have to
work fast with crepes and that method would be too slow AFAIC.

They're sampling and selling these at CostCo. We beat this to death
a few weeks ago (or maybe was that in ba.food?).

My thoughts? It's a huge waste of packaging. If you really want to
prepackage pancake batter, why not put it in a milk carton, plastic
or cardboard?

Stupid idea.

THe only thing I can see it provides is more unnecessary waste in the
landfills and excessive waste in the original production of this stupid
product.

Yep, it was shown by a demo lady a few weeks ago at a local
Costco. Weird. I don't think it will be a hit, but then
they still sell spray-cheese-in-a-can, don't they?

I have a great idea. Instead of wasting hours in this pointless
discussion, why doesn't somebody buy the can, make very thin crepes/
blini, fill them with caviar, onions and sour cream or with nutella,
and tell us how it tastes and holds up. Isn't taste somewhat of a
factor when evaluating food?

Well, if it's like the whipped cream containers it's mostly 100%
recyclable steel, along with a small portion of recyclable plastics, so
it need not fill any landfills. However it's still a waste of
manufacturing energy. I would think the other recent short filled
plastic "add water and shake" jug of pancake mix would be enough for the
laziest pseudo-cook.

Other brands already do the "just add water and shake" pancake mix in a
jug. Probably have a patent on it too.

When I was a young child, about 10 years old, the greatest fun was to
call the local drug store.

Do you have Prince Albert in a can?
Yes.
You had better let him out.
Great peals of laughter from the callers.


Prince Albert was/is tobacco. I don't remember if it was chewing or
pipe tobacco.

Most do, but you don't see it. There is a growing shift to sorting the
garbage at the end point, not at the curb as it's been found to be more
practical, particularly with some of the new automated sorting
techniques. They can now pretty much grind everything up in one big mess
and automatically sort out the various metals, plastics, etc.

Sell them at the fair, or get a cart to go to activity to activity......have
the interested parties stand around 10 feet away and open their mouths, you
could spray at them and they could eat it on the fly......get a patent on
the finished product (pancake ropes) as the mix is already patented. You
could retire independently wealthy and have to field calls from those who
want in on the gravy train (or should I say syrup train).

You must really love this stuff since you're taking so much offense.

Price is a bigger factor in this situation. A basic pancake is just
that - a pancake. You can't make it better by putting it in a can.

But, you can make it exponentially better by using buttermilk in
the batter, something no mix, frozen, or canned pancake can do.

I prefer home made, but have used the add water and shake whilst
camping. It's Ok. Nice with eggs, but hard to turn.

When I've seen a commercial for it, it looks more like a squeeze
bottle thingie. Whatever, ick. Just like those tube biscuits, or
refrigerated ready-to-bake ones, which still don't taste like home
made, no matter what brand they are, I don't have much hope for the
taste of pre-made pancake batter.

Aw, c'mon, Mark, don't try and tell us that you are so inept in the

I make crepes (delightfully thin or thick, as I wish) in a regular non-
stick 8" saute pan. The INSIDE of the pan. And they're beautiful.
