You know, poutine is really not so UNLIKE mashed potatoes and gravy that everyone loves at Thanksgiving. right? yeah, I am. Its the same thing just a teeny bit fried. and (secretly) who doesn't like some fried stuff? I rest my case. Canada rocks. They just need a little more sun, I think they lack Vitamin D and that is why they are all so passive, or, as we call them, "nice". :D

For realz, poutine is brilliant and lovely but isn't exactly an exotic or strange food.
