Yeah, doesn't that look tasty.

Fries & gravy ... Yum! ... could probably do without the cheese curds though - although, I should try it first before having final opinion.

Think I'll stick with Canadian Bacon aka Back Bacon aka Peameal Bacon.

Apparently it's french fries covered in BBQ chicken gravy and cheese curds.

Cool Poutine... It's a Canadian thing

..... mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... Cajun food.
described as spicey good hot. Haven't had good crawfish boil in years.


..... Your basic Poutine is Fries or fried potatoes with cheese curd. If you are not a purist a gravy covers it all. Many variations are possible and here in my humble home in Western New York Poutine will be made with either string or beefsteak fries, not so much cheese curd as the Québécois like and covered with any leftover gravy (or gravy from any leftovers drippings). Lots of black pepper or for zing some hot Cajun seasoning. My dad liked it with hash browns. My mom liked it with bacon and bacon fat (I'm about to barf just thinking of that). I knew people who would have it and put sugar on it. Canadians should be very unhealthy eating stuff like that. But that's just the Maritimes.
..... NOT to be confused with the New Brunswick delicacy of Poutine râpée which I never liked because I never really liked pork or greasy things the size of a baseball (at least the way my aunt made it).

Where do you think Cajuns came from? They migrated to the Southern USA from Canada. The word Cajun comes from the word Acadia.

..... It's also been described as french fries covered with snots and gravy. Not an appetizing description. Tastes better than it looks.
..... I recall that my wife was totally grossed out when she came to the U.S. at the sight of pizza, which she had never seen before. She got over that and loves pizza. She had the same reaction to poutine, but likes it now.

MAN THAT LOOKS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!

since i'm from utah and we do have mormons also saying that 99.9% of my friends our mormon that they do go on missions and one of my good friends went on his mission to quebec, canada and he said that's all he love to eat and he brought a lot of packages of the Poutine(hopefully that is how you spell it) when he got home, so he made it for me and we tried his homeade poutine out and it wasn't that bad but i think it would be better if i just go to canada and try it!!!!!!!! (by the way i'm not mormon i'm a CATHOLIC that lives in utah)
