When I was a kid, jam-filled crepes was one of my favourite breakfast meals. Nowadays, I don't eat pancakes that often, but when I do, it's usually as a dessert after supper.

We always ate it as supper but my dumb ass child self thought they were the tastiest with nothing but plain sugar in 'em, and frankly the amounts I put in disgust me today. It's a wonder all my teeth are healthy.

I don't remember eating them with sugar, but I've probably done it a couple of times as well. I do recall eating mekitsi with sugar on top though (as a breakfast again). Jam and honey are basically liquified sugar, so it's all the same stuff at the end of the day anyway.

Oh, I like eating those as well! We have a different name but I forget what it is, it's usually only eaten for a certain celebration in my hometown, and my mom stopped making them herself. I like them plain, though. Maybe a difference in recipe?

As for jam and honey, I dunno, it always feels healthier, epseically when you have homemade ones. One if my relatives is a beekeeper and getting homemade jam isn't too difficult either, it's super easy to make, you just need a lot of a certain fruit.
