We have poutine. US: What's your excuse?

[Red Squirrel]

Holy.

Shit.

Since when could you order tubs of 50 nuggets?

I know right, they totally need to start selling those here. KFC is next door, so you could then go pickup a bucket of KFC. :biggrin:

Canadians go home. I never knew that Canada was considered a healthy nation.

Fuck they have New Jersey so close.

Well, at least we have progressed past the great vowel shift 😀

Spell that so a hoser can understand it. Adds lots of superfluous u's.

In the US we have a lot. A lot of anything is bad.

We have heart disease. Enjoy your poutine!

 

[Grooveriding]

Fatties, all of you.

 

[Red Squirrel]

All this talk of poutine made me hungry.



This is not exactly a traditional poutine, but damn it was good. I should have gotten a small though since I had Jalapeno poppers too.

I grew up in Saskatchewan, and it was pretty fat. However, according to that graph, it is less fat than most of the US. Ouch.

BTW, an interesting tidbit:

When Tim Hortons expanded their coffee chain into the US, they had to upsize all of their cup sizes. Medium in Canada was a small in the US. Large in Canada was a medium in the US.

However, it rubbed off back in Canada. After doing this in the US, they did the same in Canada... which is fine by me since I used to always get the medium, but now I get the small which is the same size for less money.

you can keep your poutine

Coffee is fattening?

Coffee is fattening?

Very, if you're loading it with cream and sugar.
