Just what is " poutine " ?   If that is what the food dish is it looks like camp fries with marshmallos and topped with chocolate suyrope ?

Poutine is fries topped with curds and gravy. One of the best foods indigenous to this continent!

Doesn't it really originate down in Cajiun country

No, it originates in Quebec. The Cajuns, who are descendants of the Acadians, may have taken it down with them if it was already invented back then, but it's entirely of Quebecois origin. :)

For sure, But keep the defibrillator near by. This stuff in large quantities will stop your heart. 

Red wine will do the artery-cleaning job very nicely, thank you!

'Poutine bourguignon'? Pourquoi non!

Of course, up here, all bacon is "Canadian Bacon". What y'all are talking abowt is back bacon.

"American Singles" -- same as eHarmony® ??

We had a nice gathering on the Legislature grounds again this year, the weather was perfect, and a decent fireworks show to end it off. As an additional topper, the RCMP interrupted a bomb plot by a couple @#&%! people, who were planning to do a pressure cooker stunt. Kudos to the RCMP, and a big ole poke in the ey to those who already are complaining about them. Sheesh.

An oldie, but a goodie:

We are the Canadian Borg.  You will be assimilated. We're sorry, but resistance is futile. Pour l'assimilation en français, veuillez appuyer le "2".

Poutine seems to have originated in the 1970s (in Quebec, of course), long after Acadiana was settled. I lived in Louisiana for quite a number of years, my wife's family is Cajun on her Mom's side and I've never seen poutine served anywhere in the area.

No, he means an alleged "food" product, supposedly "cheese"--never mind that Cheez-Wiz has more cheese to it than American "cheese". Personally, IMO anything less than an 18-month Cheddar is a waste of time and calories...

My apologies, I would've called it pea meal bacon but then only Canadians would know what I was talking about aboot...
