[QUOTE]To celebrate Canada's 150th birthday, Tim Hortons is serving up patriotic food. On the menu: a doughnut smothered in poutine and an Iced Capp coffee drink topped with whipped cream, maple flakes and bacon bits.But before you get excited — or nauseous — take note: These Canadian-inspired delights won't be available in Canada. On July 1, they'll only be served up at select Tim Hortons in the U.S. "Our new Canadian-inspired treats are a great way for Americans to get in on the 150th celebration of their friendly neighbour next door," Felipe Athayde, with Tim Hortons U.S., said in a statement.[/QUOTE] [URL="http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/tim-hortons-poutine-doughnut-canada-day-150-1.4182768"]CBC[/URL] [IMG]https://i.cbc.ca/1.4182875.1498696105!/fileImage/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/16x9_620/tim-hortons-poutine-donut.jpg[/IMG] That doughnut looks equal parts disgusting and fantastic
I'm getting a heart attack just looking at it.
Cheese curds, gravy, fried potatoes, and a donut? Do they make you sign a waiver beforehand?
can tim hortons just serve up regular poutine because lemme tell you it's a bitch to find any poutine around here. I live in Minnesota which is basically America's Little Canada (we even have a city called Little Canada, but no place that serves normal ass poutine.) [URL="https://twincities.eater.com/maps/a-handy-guide-to-the-twin-cities-best-poutine"]here's a loving photo of the top 9 poutines in minneapolis/st. paul.[/URL] [t]http://i.imgur.com/OWn9G6T.jpg[/t]
tasty
Looks and sounds like it was engineered by Americans. A real Canadian would know that while they are both good, you should never mix the two together.

I honestly don't care if there are curds or not. Any kind of cheese works for me.
First and foremost,is the doughnut glazed?
"To celebrate Canada's 150th birthday, were making a donut that only Americans can eat." Excuse me, what?

Don't get me wrong, I love cheese curds, but this is a bit overkill. At first, I thought those looked disgusting, but looking at the ingredient on it, they're not as bad as I though, but there are some weird choices, like mashed potatoes on french fries.

Not even supposed to be poutine :v:
[QUOTE=sam6420;52414477]Disgusting. A disgrace to Canada.[/QUOTE] Tim Hortons as a whole is a disgrace to Canada. I don't know why it's such a national symbol when we have much better coffee shops like Second Cup and Timothy's.

Never knew they served diabetes so small

[QUOTE=DiBBs27;52414563]Is tim hortons even Canadian? I think it's owned by an american company. How can they even claim to be Canadian. Calling bullshit on this.[/QUOTE] Because it's a primarily Canadian chain and was owned by a Canadian company until 2014. Plus the "American company" that owns it now is primarily owned by a Brazilian company so it's not even that.
[QUOTE=DiBBs27;52414563]Is tim hortons even Canadian? I think it's owned by an american company. How can they even claim to be Canadian. Calling bullshit on this.[/QUOTE] [i]Technically[/i] they can still call it Canadian because it's owned by a company headquartered in Canada called Restaurant Brands International. But that's only a technicality, because the majority of shares of Restaurant Brands International are owned by 3G Capital, a Brazilian/American company. EDIT: I didn't know there were so many ninjas in this thread
that looks disgusting

If it's just shredded cheese, then it's called "Disco Fries", the inferior version of poutine. Most of these don't even have gravy. These are just starch n' whey trail mixes.
[QUOTE=Tuskin;52414351]American Poutine[/QUOTE] What the fuck is this heresy?
Poutine doughnut? What THE [B]FUCK?[/B]
Can I get it without the doughnut?
[QUOTE=DEMONSKUL;52414662]What the fuck is this heresy?[/QUOTE] One of those is just an egg on some wedges
What is poutine, exactly?
[QUOTE=Dr. Evilcop;52414758]What is poutine, exactly?[/QUOTE] French Fries, Cheese Curds and gravy is the basic version [url]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poutine[/url]
[QUOTE=Dr. Evilcop;52414758]What is poutine, exactly?[/QUOTE] Fries, gravy, cheese curds. It's a very heavy dish and delivers tons of calories. But that's perfect if you're going to have to face Canadian winter when you go outside.

[QUOTE=ShaunOfTheLive;52414552]Tim Hortons as a whole is a disgrace to Canada.

If over a thousand people live there, it probably has a Tim Hortons.
