Jas goes to Canada

01/01/2010


We all know Canada as that magical place where maple syrup grows in trees, the beer is always fresh and cold, the skiing is superb, and hockey reigns supreme in the world of sports.



Today I want to tell you about something else that’s awesome in Canada: its french-fry toppings. I’m not talking about poutine (some sort of strange gravy), no -- nacho fixin’s. Picture everything that would come on loaded nachos, but on french-fries. They serve this delicious phenomena everywhere from ski lodges to Taco Bell (Fiesta Fries, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways…). Ian and I were lucky enough to try some top quality nacho-fries at the ski lodge near our hotel, and it was a taste explosion in our mouths.



I can only hope that one day the US will catch on and we too can order nacho-fries at any restaurant and Fiesta-Fries at the Taco Bell. But at least I know that despite the frigid temperatures (it was -15 degrees F when we were there over new years), I could happily live in America’s Hat.
