At that rate, Marty, you guys are going to catch up fast on the obesity
levels....my cousins used to make that stuff when we were teenagers and
would scoff when I refused the gravy and just went for the ketchup bottle or
vinegar...gack...gravy on fires...actually, gravy on anything....

Poutine! And I can't even try it!

Haggy, sure you can! Go down to your local KFC, stop at the super market
on the way there and
get a bag of fresh curds (I assume they are available, if not grated
mozzarella works pretty well),
once you get to KFC order a large fries and a tub of gravy, when you get
the fries sprinkle the cheese on top,
then pour the gravy over the whole lot, et voila, you have poutine.

Your link was interesting, figures that the stuff would come from the
Eastern Townships, they speak a language there
which they claim to be french, but no Frenchman or Anglais trained in
french has ever been found that could understand
them.

Of course now the ultimate in disgusting poutine is the addition of mushy
peas, with a healthy sprinkling of vinegar, ketchup,
and mayonnaise, well actually it has to be Miracle Whip to be authentic.

Cheers
Marty
