Canada has some food dishes that to us are very different. They also have many foods that are native to the area. On July 20, 2013, we tried their Poutine. This is french fry potatoes covered with gravy and cheese. We got ours with bacom. At another restaurant, one of the menu items was fries with the works. That was described as "a pile of fries, hamburg, smothered in gravy, topped with peas & carrots, fried onions by request. AWESOME!"
On television, they advertised a cheeseburger with lettuce & tomatoes on a pretzel bum at Wendy's. What about a McLobster at McDonald's? Did you ever have garlic fingers with donair dipping sauce. Well, we did with our pizza. The dipping sauce is made of sugar, vinegar, can milk, starch and garlic.
Foods that are native to the area are lots of seafood. I had a wonderful white fish one evening named "Hake." They have clam strip boats which are fried clams and fries. I had several lobsters and several lobster dishes. Wild blueberries are also native to the area. Yesterday I had a blueberry salad with blueberry beer. They had blueberries in the glass. This was not the first time I had blueberry beer.
I have to try a McLobster, or two, when I get up there!
