      All joking aside, I live in northern Ontario where we have a large enough French Canadian culture up here and poutine is everywhere in just about every chip stand you can find.

      A good true original Quebecois style poutine will be served with curds and gravy … most places will even refer to it as just ‘Quebecois Poutine’

      A lesser, cheaper style is one where they just use mozzarella cheese instead. Most places just classify this as a ‘Regular Poutine’. There are also many places that will use cheddar or some other type of cheese as a substitute.

      And if you are ever wandering around this part of the country, or in most other places around Canada and you order a poutine … ask them if it is a Regular or Quebec poutine … the difference is in asking if the poutine has curds or any other type of cheese.

      I mentioned that in order to fix your poutine without curds by playing the Canadian National anthem … you should probably change that to instead playing the unofficial/official Quebec anthem Gens du pays

        I would really love to try the Quebec type. Hopefully one day I will fetch to Canada to have the real stuff.
