Do Canadians not call the Scandinavian crepe style Swedish pancakes? That’s the common term in the US regardless of size and fold.

Yes it is. You’ll find it on breakfast menus in every part of the country, if they make them. There are variations though. What do you call them?

Well I'm 40 and lived all over the country and I've never heard it a single time. You sure you don't live in an alternate timeline? Also just to make sure I'm not crazy I looked at iHop's online menu and it's... just pancakes. Never heard anyone call a pancake anything other than a pancake.

Ah, yeah you're thinking of regular pancakes. In this thread, we're talking about crepes made in one of the Scandinavian styles. I haven't heard of IHOP selling those unless it's a special menu item.

Edit: I googled IHOP Swedish pancakes and they apparently had them for awhile and discontinued them a couple years ago.

Bizarre. :) From one well-traveled ~40-year-old to another, eat more breakfast.

I have heard of it maybe at a distinct place, but not common.

Alot of things also passed off as crepe but not...

Not alot of standards lop
