I don't care what you do to poutine. Go wild, experiment. But I just saw a video of a chef putting meringue on a butter tart and I feel this is some kind of national insult.

When we were getting married, we registered at Bed Bath and Beyond. Part of the proces was having little meeting with one of the salespeople. One of the things they said (and I must emphasize this seemed completely earnest) was "you need six sets of towels for each person in your household"
