Popping My Poutine Cherry

Well, I've been in Canada just over 3 weeks and it's taken me this long but I've finally done it!!! I've eaten Poutine. For those who don't know, Poutine is a dish consisting of French Fries, topped with cheese curd and covered in gravy. Sound good??? This was the first time I've ever tried cheese curd as well and it has that horrible squeak when bitten into (a lot like running your nails down a chalk board).

I'll be the first to admit I like fries. I like them with gravy, with mayonnaise, with tomato sauce, with BBQ sauce, with vinegar - get the picture - and now I like them Poutine style, though my waist may disagree.
