Not much to say about myself -- I'm an Irish guy whose interests include MLP, video games, and occasionally writing fanfics.

When Vinyl Scratch saw the unassuming little restaurant in Ponyville selling something called "poutine", she figured it would do no harm to check the place out. Little did she know that this restaurant would be home to the most deliciously addictive food in Equestria...

No one can resist a poutine, unless you are Canadian. I should know, I live in Canada and I only get a poutine once every two months.

Reading you story made me crave a good poutine....... But alas that will not come to pass unless I drive 1200km south to Whitehorse, Yukon. Oh the tortures of living in the arctic :fluttercry:.

Enjoyed the story though and keep up the good work.

Mmm... poutine~

6876781 Wha? I thought Canada was swimming in the stuff.

6876978 Glad you enjoyed it, and my condolences on your poutine situation. :ajsleepy:

6877059 I still can't believe I haven't tried it myself. Maybe I should make my own some time -- it can't be that hard.

6877558 Don't worry, the majority of our lakes are made of poutines, we just put a bunch on a plate and serve it to foreigners. But we eat so much of it that we have gained an immunity to it's taste.

6876978 Just out of curiosity, and I swear I don't mean any offence, but... why live in the Arctic? That makes about as much sense to me as Americans settling in the desert.

The tough part is acquiring good cheese curds. Otherwise it's just fries and gravy.

I need some poutine, now.

6877695 There's some pretty good farmer's markets around where I live. Would they be a good place to look?

Yes. Finally. My home food in a story, yes.

6878262 From what I hear, poutine is to Canadians what a good stout is to we Irish.

6878323 On a tangential note, I must say that Canadian lager is pretty damn fine, too. Better than the swill we import from the States, anyway.

6878349 I'm serious! We don't import a single decent American beer here, with the possible exception of Budweiser. It's nothing but Coors Light and Miller as far as the eye can see! :raritydespair:

6878364 yeah I know, I seriously sucks. :facehoof:

6877724

Hmmm... it's worth a shot.

6877657 I have made a decision in life to try whenever possible to travel the road less traveled. Seeing the Arctic was always a life goal and when a job opportunity came up in my field that allowed me to not only live up north but also travel at no cost to myself to many of the smaller communities how could I say no. In the 6 months I Have been up here I have seen and experienced many amazing things up here and because of this I plan to stay up here for the long term.

Cost of fresh food (if its available) may be double, but the MUCH higher wages and the many government subsidies (ex. my power bill is less of than it was down south) make the cost of living very manageable.

6878596 Well, when you put it like that, it sounds pretty sweet! Where exactly are you, by the way? Nunavut?

6878613 I live in Inuvik, Northwest Territories. It is the largest community in the Western Arctic and literally the end of the road (The Dempster highway ends here and its the only road in Canada that goes above the arctic circle)

6878364

At least you don't get Labatts Blue!

6878716 If that's anything like Corona, then I'm very glad we don't.

Before someone accuses me of being a snob about my booze, may I remind you that I come from Ireland -- the country that gave the world Guinness, Jameson and Bushmills. I think I'm qualified to speak with some authority on the manner. :derpytongue2:

6876781 Thats a lie and you know it.

As a fellow Canadian who can NOT in fact resist a poutine on my drive to work in the morning. I believe you are mistaken.

I'd love to try Poutine but the nearest restaurant that sells it is around the Great Lakes region and I'm here in south Ohio near Dayton.

6901658 Sounds rough. Aren't there some places in America where you'd have to drive across half the state just to get a taco?

6901759 There are some places like that though apparently this occurs mainly along the east coast.
