Poutine is what folks South of the 49th parallel would call “A greasy mess”.

It is. I don’t care for gravy on french fries to start with, but when you throw cheese curds on top of the gravy my gag reflex kicks in. One of those weird foods whose 3 ingredients are great separately, but nasty together.

I prefer malt vinegar when I can find it but don’t mind gravy if it’s good, which is rare.

My son turned me on to poutine, though. Most of it sucks but there’s the odd time the weird combination really works (though to be fair it almost seems like you’re daring your heart not to explode, lol).

Not worth it enough to pursue except under emergency conditions, though.
