from ubereats. you might think we named a dish after putin but i'm actually trying to canadianize him. also got him to try "boneless wings" that were covered with the "Xtra Hot + Spontaneous Combustion + Dry Southern Heat" sauce but i think i tortured him with one bite.
also watched "love on the spectrum" and a guy on the show mentions international dating sites where he can find russian girls...hits a little close to home. he thought the accent was british but i could tell it was australian.

So what is poutine exactly? I think it's just french fries in brown gravy with cheese, right? Sounds delicious.

Is that like cottage cheese or farmers cheese? That looks really, really delicious. I'm not a fan of fries, but I'd like to try this. |

Yes. REAL poutine (pronounced poo-ssin) is made with cheese curds.
Agreed - it IS delicious.
I used to consider myself a real poutine connoisseur. If I was getting take away from a fast food restaurant, if poutine was offered, I would try it.
With regards to the cheese:
One time I ordered it from a fast food restaurant that I usually don't go to. They asked me if I would like shredded cheese or curds.
REALLY?! You have to ask?! 
Finally, about 3 or 4 years ago, I found out with virtually NO notice that I am lactose-intolerant. So, I thought I would have to give up poutine altogether - as well as pizza. However, on the advice of my doctor, he suggested I buy Lactaid pills to help digestion.
I pop a couple of them before I eat, and I'm fine.

Since I've been reading about it I thought I might try it. It's odd that it sounds like home cooking. I'm curious why it never took off in the U.S.
I was gonna use just shredded light cheddar. I have no idea where to find cheese curds here. Cottage cheese would be yuck.

poutine (pronounced poo-ssin) No, it isn't.
Sorry, but:
Yes, it is.
Here's how I know:
I was watching a show called "Still Standing". Jonny Harris, who is a very funny comedian from Newfoundland, goes around to struggling Canadian cities and towns. He visits several tourist points, and talks with the owners, locals and tourists who frequent the town.
He visited Mattawa, Ontario, which is just outside of North Bay. Since it is in that corridor between North Bay and Ottawa, quite a few residents have French as their first language. He visited the local chip wagon, which does an amazing amount of business. The owners were going to make Jonny a poutine. The key was that in order for them to make it for him, he had to order it with the correct pronunciation.
Of course, he was pronouncing it "poo-teen". They said it wasn't right, and they gave the correct pronunciation of "poo-ssin".
After about 3 or 4 tries, he got it.

I don't know what kind of crazy accent they have in Mattawa Ontario, but here in Montreal the 't' in 'poutine' is definitely pronounced as a 't' and not as 'ss' - or at most as "th".

Jep Gambardella I believe they are trying for a juvenile scatological "joke" of "poo-ssin". = "poo-is-in" poutine maybe ?

Could be, but I think it's just a slight misunderstanding between the sound of a hard T (as in 'tea') and a soft 'th' sound (as in 'thing'). The latter is the correct pronunciation.

Vacation? Are you talking about the road trip I talked about here some time ago? That was for work. I haven't had any vacations since the pandemic started.
Anyway, I did have some free time during that trip and yes, I had some fun.

There were a couple of occasions when I went to a particular restaurant only to find it closed, or open for take-out only, but generally no, it was not a problem to find a place to eat. I have to say that I ate at fast-food places (which were all open) far more often than it's good for me!
Hotels were not a problem at all except that they were not serving breakfast!
