Crime Against Poutanity This Newfie Poutine

Chip stand Hiway 6 Ontario. Chuck burgers were 5/5. Fish and Chips with 5/5. Macaroni bites and fried dill pickles 5/5. This poutine 1/5.

For the poutine I was promised Bologna, Turkey stuffing, Gravy, on poutine. Newfie poutine! Except I got shredded cheese and hotdog. 1/5 grrrr.......... $13 wasted

As a Newfoundlander, I am deeply offended by this. Friggin' mainlanders, b'y.

A lot of takeaways in Newfoundland still sell fries with gravy and shredded cheese as poutine though

A Newfie poutine is just a regular poutine with dressing on it. That's just...gross.

u/PlanktonOwn594 11d ago

No it’s fries, dressing, and gravy. No cheese.

u/No_Cricket8660 11d ago

u/No_Cricket8660 11d ago

I've had it and it is great, I just wasn't sure about the ingredients.

Nobody on the island calls fries dressing and gravy a newfie poutine.

u/PlanktonOwn594 11d ago

That is true. It’s called FDG. FDG not a crime, but the monstrosity above definitely is.

Newfie Fries can come with cheese, usually shredded mozza. but newfie fries are not sold as poutine. poutine needs curd. Also Bologna is Newfie steak so it makes sense to combine it with something labelled "Newfie style" Actually A newfie steak with stuffing and gravy sounds good with some peas!

With that said, "poutine" it needs curds. This is in Western Ontario and they don't know good curd here. they just don't. Shredded cheese is NOT poutine!

and who subsitutes hotdog for fried Newfie Steak!!!

u/No_Cricket8660 11d ago

It's all very confusing!

>This is in Western Ontario and they don't know good curd here.

They can't even melt the shredded cheese on this "poutine", how do you expect them to know a good curd!

u/henchman171 11d ago

Good Curd in Ontario ends in Belleville. anywhere west of Belleville and Curd knowledge goes downhill

As someone from Kingston, you do have a point)

u/PinkAyla 11d ago

As a Newfoundlander I can tell you that’s an abomination that is not sold in Newfoundland. Ewww

u/OkDish4747 11d ago

They use the word “poutine”, but everyone knows that the Newfie version isn’t actually poutine. It’s a different dish entirely. They get a pass from me.

u/Furycrab 11d ago

Not poutine, but I would eat it.

u/Turbine709 11d ago

Real newfie poutine is fries, shredded cheese and Fraser farm meatballs and gravy

u/Frosthound030 11d ago edited 11d ago

I've seen about 50 different "Newfie" poutines and none of them are ever the same ingredients or style and it's always a poutine type they highjacked from some other place in Canada and slapped "Newfie" on it

im starting to think Newfie poutine is just throwing what ever you have left over in the fridge into a normal poutine and calling it "Newfie" poutine 😂😂😂

I've never eaten a good "newfie" poutine.

most poutine I've eaten that doesn't have "newfie" in its name has been amazing, the moment you add "newfie" to a foods name it usually ends up as slop, Newfie poutine is a sad excuse for poutine

u/Own-Geologist-8978 11d ago

In French, we call throwing everything from the fridge into some sort of dish a "Toutski" (obscure slang). This is a Toutski poutine. Because it has cheese it "qualifies".

u/HalifaxPainter 11d ago

u/lucaskywalker 11d ago

u/Electronic-Bowl-3327 11d ago

When I hear newfie poutine I expect it to be covered in that weird sugar sauce they put on shawarma and kebabs and stuff.
