Will the real poutine, please stand up!

Poutine

Poutine is a Canadian dish that consists of French fries, cheese curds, and gravy. The gravy used in poutine is typically a beef or chicken-based sauce, which is made from a roux (butter and flour) and broth. The cheese curds used in poutine are small pieces of fresh cheese, which are slightly salty and have a rubbery texture.

"Gravy and cheese" is not a specific dish but rather a combination of ingredients that can be used in various dishes. It could refer to dishes like chili cheese fries, nachos, or even a simple dish of fries with melted cheese and gravy on top.

While both poutine and "gravy and cheese" dishes include similar ingredients, they are not the same thing. The cheese used in poutine is cheese curds, which have a unique texture and flavor that can't be replicated with melted cheese. Additionally, poutine typically has a specific type of gravy that is different from other dishes that include gravy.

So, in summary, true poutine and "gravy and cheese" are not interchangeable terms. Poutine is a specific dish that includes French fries, cheese curds, and a specific type of gravy, while "gravy and cheese" is a more general term that can refer to a variety of dishes.
