Poutine is a classic Canadian dish that originated in Quebec, consisting of three main components: crispy French fries, cheese curds, and savory brown gravy. The fries serve as the base, topped with fresh cheese curds that gently melt when smothered with hot gravy. Known for its indulgent and comforting flavors, poutine has become a popular food across Canada and beyond. While it delivers a satisfying combination of textures and flavors, its nutritional profile is less ideal for those seeking a healthy option. Poutine is high in calories, saturated fats, and sodium, largely due to the frying process, cheese curds, and gravy. However, it can provide energy and serve as a hearty treat when eaten occasionally. Variations that include additional toppings, such as vegetables or lean proteins, can balance the dish slightly but do not significantly alter its indulgent nature.
