@dlowan,
a really big plate of poutine which children in canada are forced to eat all the time.
also they have snow ALL THE TIME!!!!
except for the winter olympics, when they have no snow.
@dadpad,
I hear the adults of Canada are trapped in a vicious cycle of
poutine-related self abuse as well. Slow suicide by indefinite and constant ingestion of the soul crushing carcinogenic brew of French fries and a gravy-like something that even the devil himself wouldn't touch.
I want to have it's babies and eat them too
Plastic utensils - Disgusting.
At Harvey's, the big Canadian burger chain, instead of "super-sizing" your combo order, you can substitute poutine for two bucks more . . .

It certainly is! In Canada, we use our fingers.
@Intrepid,
And it's a bargain at the price!
@Setanta,
We use poutine as chum when fishing for tuna . The oil slick attracts all sorts of sea life,(which attracts tuna) and the cheezy curds float around and look like pieces of squidmeat.
ANd set is correct, its cheaper than using brim.
and whoever tagged this "canadian cheese fries"

@ehBeth,
That was actually my second guess, my first was dog vomit.
In truth, I love regional foods and never shy away from trying them. Before Buffalo wings became available everywhere I had a friend send me boxes of them from the Anchor Bar. I might be in Canada next fall and I'll be sure to order me up a bowl of whatever that is.
@Green Witch,
That is poutine. It is french fries, covered with cheese curds and brown gravy. It was invented by the owner of a diner in Sherbrooke, Québec in 1959 (according to CBC). It am delicious!
@ehBeth,
Are you the one responsible for all the tags about Thomas and poutine? That boy surely learned to love poutine!
i may have to leave the country i've never eaten poutine, i have however had fries diablo (mexican poutine, fries, chili and cheese)

What could be bad about that? I lived on pomme frites with mayo in Brussels one summer and suffered no ill side effects. Bring it on!
An American friend of mine and i drove up to Trana once to visit The Girl, and while she was at work, we were out driving around, and went through the drive-up at Burger King. I ordered poutine with my combo, so he did, too. When we were done eating (in the parking lot--Danforth and Victoria Park), he had me drive through again so he could get another order of poutine.
