  • Brother, we have all of those ingredients everywhere. We have a little British store run by expats who could get whatever packaged crumpet you use. Shit, I can make a batch of crumpets in about 15 minutes.

    It’s not like a crazy recipe that needs balanced flavors to be done right. Like I’ve never had a good poutine outside of Quebec. It’s always sad beige gravy with the wrong seasonings or mozzarella or frozen fries or all of the above. It is never right.

    What we can also talk about is local places making local dishes but they do it wrong and cheap or “good enough” and people come from abroad and try the dishes and think they’re mid because they went to the wrong place.

    TL;DR: I love poutine.

  • As a French speaker, we could do away with accents and absolute tons of silent vowels and consonants and French would still work exactly as well. People complain about English because more people learn it as a second language and these forums are anglo-centric, but French is just as much of a grammatical mess.
