Am I the only one who while playing a flight simulator with a controller moves the controller around while making turns?
I am? Okay.

Just watched The Revenant, I liked it
Bear was easily the best at acting
Something bothered me a lot though I don't care how many bear skins you're wearing, you're not gonna survive falling into a freezing river and then sleeping in your WET CLOTHES next to the smallest fire in the world

@ Jos's pic, the documentary is actually interesting to watch but here's the excerpt involving the cast:

Almost as emotional as the one following the Hobbit trilogy when they knew there were no more movies left to make.
SIlmarillion would be too complex to make movies of, I think :\
then there's this

Hey Josi, if you're around I have a Canada question for you.
So I'm watching Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives (shaddap, I love food porn) and he's in Toronto. Once he goes into the restaurant, the first recipe they go into is poutine. It made me wonder: just how big of a deal is poutine in Canada, anyway? Is it like the nacho is to Mexico (as in, made for gringos and not seen in actual Mexican cuisine), or is it more like apple pie in America (as in, if you screw it up, you might as well get deported)?

A little of Column A, and a little of Column B.
If you're going to make some really good poutine, it has to be made the Quebec way: lots of fatty/greasy gravy, thick cut fries, and real cheese curds.

I've never had it before, but I am heading to Wisconsin in the next few weeks, and they sell fresh cheese curds EVERYWHERE out there. All I'd need is the fries (hmm... steak fries, maybe?) and the gravy (I might go jarred, for that one).

I dunno if it reached the US yet, but Canadian McDonalds "McCafes" now serve poutine, but it's pretty... blegh.

So aside from poutine and anything bacon related, what would you chaps say would be like the quintessential Canadian food that everyone must try at least once?

Quote: Common contenders as the Canadian national food include:
Poutine
Butter tarts
Kraft Dinner
That's just sad lol

No, their gravy is an abomination as well.
Like, a super abomination to all gravy everywhere.
Secondly, "poutine sauce", is a cheapass way of passing off rancid ***on garbage fries, so they can punish people who get munchies while high, at 3 in the morning.
There may be some specific poutine gravy recipes to each location, or even unique to each restaurant.

Moose meat
Some places sell beaver meat
deer meat
Nanaimo Bars (super sweet tasting, avoid the store bought ***, best stuff comes from, you guessed it, Nanaimo BC)
Montreal Smoked Meat sandwiches
We have some pretty good Canadian Lobster
Edit: I just did a search, and 65% of it was all poutine or various Mac n Cheese dishes... with lobster or crab meat.

Nanaimo Bars and Poutine really. There is no way you'll get to buy authentic quality Native American cuisine since we've mostly been wiped out sadly.

I've never been to quebec so I can't argue with ya. While I haven't been there, I have had a chance to make it, and have it made during my classes in culinary arts. It's a variation unique to cheap *** quebec store fronts aiming to bring in the HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE American thinking it's legit.
Also, there are tons of places in Canada that do sell and make traditional/classic native American dishes. Although they mostly reside in the tundra or smaller towns and reservations that focus on maintaining their history while moving into the future.

Also, this came up during my Canadian cuisine search. It's *** real.

This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
