Pandemic pummels poutine providers
A drop in restaurant patronage has led to a corresponding fall in poutine consumption and thus less demand for cheese curds.
Patriotic Québécois ought to do their bit and eat poutine more often!

I loved the alliteration in the title!

Poutine is pretty hard to make at home, at least with actual fried french fries, and if you take it out, you’ve got a congealed ball of yuck by the time you get home.

Ahhh…but there’s frozen fries at least. With a can of St-Hubert poutine sauce and some curds…very acceptable option.

Some places (e.g. L’Gros Luxe) will deliver the gravy on the side so you can add it just before eating (or even reheat it first if necessary).

There was a story months ago that there was a surplus of fries, because restaurants wete closed. Apparently a special type of potato is grown to make fries.
But I’ve not seen great sales in frozen fries.
