Everyone knows American pancakes are round and fat unlike the French crepes which in the UK we normally consider to be 'pancakes'. Was he trying to insinuate that Josie would need the fat 'Amercian' style pancakes to fill her up due to her chub? and that the thinner French pancakes would just not do the job?

I think this is why he made the American style ones and I would not be surprised if he next makes her an 'American' style thick crust deep pan pizza with extra cheese.
