Poutine is more of a thing in Quebec, not so much for the rest of Canada... at least not for those of us who wish to keep our arteries flowing.

I have a good friend from Montreal. He speaks quite fondly of it, among other things.
I've eaten it once. Will certainly, again, if the opportunity presents itself. (Not a lot of poutine in West GA. I'm sure you're shocked.  )

Contact your friend today and tell him you're very sorry to hear about Guy. Seriously. He'll be very appreciative!

Perhaps. But I don't think so. He's been here since the late '90s. He's quite "americanized", although not a citizen yet.
He's also not a real sports fan. I'm not sure I've ever heard him mention hockey.

Until this thread, I had never before heard of Vienna Sausage. No, I don't want to know what it is. |

Vienna sausage is nothing like agood frankfurter or weiner.

I like a good quality frankfurter.
Vienna sausages do not even come close to being edible.
Mush in a tube. |

Certainly didn't sound like something you could buy in a restaurant. Well, at least not most of them. |
|
Sounded like a naughty word, like slang for female anatomy... as in "Gonna get me some POUTINE tonight, boys!"

Now I'm pissed!

1 year ago a big gulp or whatever was $.1.07. $1.40 now.

Are they actually the same? I remember them having a slimy gel like spam.
