      I had to look up what poutine was, and I can assure you that we don’t have anything like that in Italy

      First generation montrealer here of Italian descent: that sauce is a bastardized Greek meat sauce, there is nothing remotely spaghetti or Italian about it.

      I actually love Italian poutine for what it is, but I would never put that sauce on spaghetti or call a sauce that routinely contains cinnamon and oregano an Italian sauce.

        Bro. Bro.

        Belle province, all dressed steamies and an “Italian” Poutine. My god.

        Sure as fuck ain’t Italian or a good meat sauce but as a combo that shit slaps.

            I don’t eat meat anymore but I’m from Cincy and do occasionally crave a 5 way, hell even a 4 or 3 way (yes seriously that’s what our iconic company for this dish calls its dishes, skyline knows what they’re doing). My wife would fucking love this as a poutine as it sounds like it’s just a 3 way with fries instead of spaghetti.
