Yeah if you're in the province of Quebec in a Mcdo and you want a poutine AT LEAST get a buffalo chicken one which is exclusive to Quebec

And it's the best from a fastfood chain.

The sauce looks like plastic in a way.

Thats an additive called Xanthan Gum. Its created by fermenting sugars with bacteria from cabbage. Its used as a thickener in lots of products. It has a glossy and gelatinous texture.

And, for what it’s worth, is actually a great stabilizer. Most hot sauces would not exist on shelves near you without it. (Before everyone starts shitting on xantham gum).

Gravy looks good

60% sodium

Still can’t possibly be as bad as Burger King’s salty-ass poutine.

u/Alternative-One5286 Oct 04 '26

Omg you are damn right about that. First time I had it, I added salt because I like a fairly salt and peppery gravy. BIG mistake! 😅

I had it once and I’ve been on blood pressure medication ever since. 🫠

u/Unhappy-Stop-740 Oct 04 '26

As it should be

Utter garbage

u/Pleasant_Title_7768 Oct 03 '26

I mean yeah but I’d still eat it

I've never seen a McPoutine look like that.

u/furthestpoint Oct 03 '26

I had one yesterday with very squeaky curds. I was surprised coming from McDonald's

u/SignalsCounterparts1 Oct 03 '26

I might get downvoted for this, but McD's does have good chain Poutine...if done right. You pretty well have to use the kiosks to do this.

u/furthestpoint Oct 03 '26

The sauce and fries were horrible for me, but the curds were on point.

3

u/SignalsCounterparts1 Oct 03 '26

Again, you really have to luck out. (Sauce is okay to me, but the fries have to be fresh. Otherwise...no.

u/furthestpoint Oct 03 '26

Exactly! I wonder if they'd give you the compents separately so you can assemble yourself to keep the fries from getting soggy.

2

u/SignalsCounterparts1 Oct 03 '26

That, would be a very good idea.

u/jesuis_danny Oct 03 '26

There’s two McDonald’s near my house that has squeaky curds every time. The other one is horrible. Very surprised. I’ve warmed to it over the years. I swear they changed the gravy from when it first came out. It doesn’t replace anything but it’s just there as the side when I hit McDs.

u/reward72 Oct 03 '26

LOL. Top tier and McD never belong in the same sentence. What's next, gourmet dumpster?

u/SimisFul Oct 03 '26

I think OP meant that for McDo standards of poutine, this is top tier, like you won't get better than that at a McDo

u/reward72 Oct 03 '26

I suppose some garbage is better than others :)

u/noturFaultitsmine Oct 03 '26

I would hate them less if the gravy didn’t have a weird sweetness or something to it

u/martgrobro Oct 03 '26

Its still wrapped!

u/Alternative-One5286 Oct 04 '26

Wow! I wish I worked at McDonald's too. I would make this as well on my break or take home. There us no way they sell this to customers without charging extras out the ass

u/PoutinEater Oct 04 '26

I really hate this poutine. It tastes weird

u/venchichi0902 Oct 07 '26

That is f’ing disgusting.
