Plumb tasteless!

[Twila]

And I challenge ANYone to eat a slice of my tourtiere and tell me it's bland, boring, flavorless, or not Canadian.

I'll take up that challenge. You just ship me some of that and I'll be more then happy to taste it.

For Canada - what about Beef Stew? Nearly everyone likes a good stew. Cliff - what's wrong with a hamburger? Depending on where it's made (preferably at home on the BBQ) it can be great. Who started Wraps? I realize the shell is not "canadian" but man - I do like a good wrap that has been toasted on the outside just before you munch it down. Soooo good and far less bread than a sandwich. Stays with you for a long time so you don't get hungy so fast.
If all ole' Colonel Sanders liked was his own chicken - he was really missing out.

Sorry... I'll be more than happy to make some when you come over, or accept plane tickets to come make some at your house, but I don't think unsalted pork products ship well. lol.

He probably killed the flavor of everything with tabasco sauce anyway.

There may be less bread yes, but there are more calories and carbs in one large tortilla than two slices of bread. If you care about that sort of thing.

What is Canadian food? We are such a bunch of mutts representing just about every culture in the world. When I left Montreal to come out west I was astounded to find a sign in every restaurant window announcing they served Western Cuisine. I entered many an establishment trying to figure out just what that meant and finally figured out it meant hamburgers and Open Denvers. What an insult to the word cuisine. And most restaurants in the west challenge the concept of food (unless they are really good ethnic restaurants).

one word...."bannock"

As much as I LOVE bannock and gravey, the natives can't take credit for it - bannock is the original scone (Scottish or British in origin - or something like that).

It was made simultaneously apparently. One name coming from the name of a tribe that traveled the US, the other coming from gaelic in Scotland.

The term, maybe. Given that people travlled back and forth from the old world to the new and back. I would guess flat bread was something brought to the continent by original settlers.

Maybe it was the vikings who brought over flatbread? They were hear (North America) quite a bit before any others other then native.

Actually, there is evidence that the Irish and/or the Scots may have been here long before the Vikings. And Polynesians may have been here as long ago as 13 thousand years.

I guess a lot of things might seem a bit bland alongside something with eleven herbs and spices. I admit to having Col
Sanders Kentucky fried once or twice a year because I am basically lazy. My own breaded chicken breasts are better than
anything Sanders ever dreamed up, and they aren't soaked in fat.

Kentucky Fried Chicken and KFC aren't the same. When Pepsi bought Kentucky Fried Chicken and turned it into KFC it took a huge dive.

Ya, I find it goes bad in the fridge in about 24 to 48 hours. Probably not exactly 'clean' when you eat it the first time.

Always good for a laugh.

Je ne parle pas.

We have necrophiliacs?
