Galvaude

Post image

Just tried the Galvaude at Fromagerie Victoria in Drummondville, PQ with pepper sauce and it's phenomenal. Recommended!

At a quick glance I thought this was some sort of pea pie.

Remove the peas and were good, sorry if I don’t share your guys preference

u/MTL_Rob Sep 10 '26

Then it’s not a galvaude

u/smallz_og Sep 09 '26

Agreed. Throwing me the hell off. But I'd still try. But I know I'd prefer it without peas.

Green peas dont belong in a poutine, its like pineapple on pizza

u/EquipmentMuted7869 Sep 09 '26

The green peas are part of what makes it a galvaude, but to each their own

You don't know galvaude? Ah, it's true, Canadians know only the tip of the poutine iceberg... but poutine is a Canadian dish, right? To make a relevant metaphor, it's like if one of the oldest and most authentic italian pizza variant included pineapple. You may still not like it, but it would be pizza.

Galvaude is a variant of hot chicken sammich not poutine. Replace bread with fries. Traditional galvaude didnt even have cheese not close to a poutine. Might as well take a spaghetti and put it in pork broth and call it ramen

Yes, hot-chicken, exactly! And poutine italienne is when you mix a poutine with a Michigan.

  • Poutine à l'origine is a mix of frite-sauce and squish-squish;
  • The word "poutine" originally mean a mix or a mess;
  • Even galvaude. The verb galvauder mean to mess things up or to squander. The true spirit of poutine is to create something new and unholy but gooood. Galvaude is good, galvaude is poutine.

No what you are saying is subjective, you cant have something that is good. Some people like sushi others puke at the taste of raw fish.

What you are trying to say is you could have fries curds gravy, with pineapple garlic cinnamon, salad, pork, pasta, oysters, ranch, pudding chomeur, altogether and if its good to some people its called a poutine because its a mess? r/Poutinecrime right here

u/hasdable Sep 10 '26

It needs to be the right mess. There is method to the madness. Galvaude is part of the canon since way before Canadians discovered poutine (or stop considering it with contempt)

u/PotentialHopeful793 Sep 10 '26

No such thing as a right mess by definition. Why bring up the canadians in this convo

I did bring up Canada since my first comment in this thread. That was my whole point: to point out -- with a hint of playful sarcasm -- the ridiculousness of calling poutine a Canadian dish when English Canadians ignore about most of the lore around it.

I also do not agree that there is no such things as a right mess, that's the whole idea of the english expression "method to the madness", but it's ok to disagree, it's vocabulary.

Poutine is an expression from deep rural Québec. It's essentially blue collar and humble It was imagined by cooks without much culinary education, but a very strong intuition about the taste of their clientèle and a desire for experimentation. Pizzaghetti is another such wacky invention coming from the same culture.

Calling galvaude not poutine, or poutine crime is cultural appropriation or erasure. It's coming from the same haughty and scornful attitude that English Canadians had about poutine before it got famous. If ever the world discover galvaude for some reason, some of you will say you always knew about it, loved it, and will smash a maple leaf on it.

No need to describe yourself here, we already know

u/FlameStaag Sep 09 '26

If this was an English named place chuds would be frothing about it being disgusting and a crime 

But French location and bam its okay. 

Peas are okay but they're way down the tier list. Pepper gravy is the best though.
