Calling poutine being "Canadian" food is cultural appropriation against Quebec.
As a Quebecer, I firmly stand my ground. Not sorry.
But cool visit!!!
Canadian poutine is when they use cheap mozzarella cheese or any white cheese to make a greasy tasteless mess of food.
Quebec poutine is when they use actual cheese curds with piping hot beef heavy to make a greasy tasty mess of food.
There is a difference and most people don't know until they've been to Quebec and had a real poutine there.
It’s the difference between pou-teen and pou-tine.
Every day, I say a prayer of thanks to St. Albert for living in their delivery radius.
You mean St. Hubert?
Nope, St. Albert. They make the cheese curds typically used by the fine men and women who operate the grease shacks in the Ottawa Valley.
I think my ban from Quebec for calling St. Hubert Quebec's answer to Swiss Chalet expires soon.
C'est certain!
Calling this: ■ a quadrilateral is cultural appropriation against rectangles.
I agree. Quebec is in no way Canadian and as a Canadian I am appalled people pretend it is.
Our national foods are nanaimo bars and donair.
Putine sucks shit anyway.
Haha yes a fellow Canadian! We are all so united by our disdain for eachother, it's heartwarming!
Nanaimo bars are overhyped. Poutine is the shit!
