Poutine

[plonq]

One of the "delicacies" that I was introduced to when I moved out here from the west coast was Poutine. I had never heard of it before I moved here, but they serve it just about everywhere (even at Burger King). I could describe what it is (french fries with cheese curds and gravy), but I'll let the picture speak for itself.

One Canadian delicacy I would be pleased as punch to see NEVER cross the border south...

Its the "curds" that ruin it. Once they melt, they reform into this all encompassing mass of rubber cement of an event horizon that not even "good flavor" can escape. Replace real "cheese" for those curds, and then you got something delicious!

Perhaps I've not had good poutine, but.. *shiver*.. once bitten..

You must have not had good poutine, as those curds are supposed to be real fresh mild cheese. And you gotta eat it hot. Once it cools, it congeals, yes.

*Laughs* It would probably count as a declaration of war if you serve poutine to an American!
