Fueled by Poutine

My traditional bike riding diet of bananas, Snickers bars and peanut butter sandwiches has been supplemented by poutine, a Quebec delicacy of golden potato fries in a bath of warm brown gravy, topped with globs of chewy white cheese. For about an hour after I eat a dish of poutine I can't ride very fast at all, but for the next 5 hours - zoom! - it's like rocket fuel.

Here's a photo of a roadside poutine shack, or Casse Croute:



And here's the stuff itself...yummmmm....
