mike, what is Canada day about ???🙄

Since you asked and since JUSTA and I live literally next door.....

I like a lot of different and unique cuisine. I like haggis, for example. The one thing from Canada I can't wrap my head around is poutine. Gravy on french fries - yum! Add chesse curds? Pass! You add melted cheese and I'm in. 

 

Music is a parody of Canada's National Anthem "O'Canada"

Technically Canada Day / Dominion Day is Canada's birthday. It celebrates the anniversary of Canadian Confederation which occurred on July 1, 1867, with the passing of the Constitution Act of 1867 where the three separate colonies of Canada, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick were united into a single Dominion within the British Empire called Canada. Canada became a "kingdom in its own right" within the British Empire commonly known as the Dominion of Canada.

Technically it is Confederation day.  The day we became a country--- or as I like to call it the day the Brits said, " get out"

 

Poutine if done right the cheese curds will melt.  You cook the fries and then add the room temperature curds.  Then you add the near boiling gravy and this will finish melting the cheese.  Do not ask for ketchup and pepper when ordering poutine especially in Quebec they may try to linch you.

oh oh oh , i want !!!!😜..... oh and i bet its a nice rich beef gravy too !!!

Right Kiwi -  it has all the major cholesterol groups covered.

So what's wrong with pepper and ketchup on poutine? Since when is Quebec worried about cuisine faux pas? If I did it, would I get a ticket or would a RCMP come up to me and say  "sorry sir, about that, eh? Don't do it again" warning?
