The Origins of Poutine

In its simplest form, Poutine consists of fries, gravy, and cheese curds. Some say the fries need to be double fried; others say a lighter type of gravy is necessary. The roots of Poutine here in Canada aren't super glamorous so let's not get ahead of ourselves. There are some places that have something called disco fries, which are similar to Poutine but not Poutine.
