[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]Butter tarts, for the uninitiated, are a small pastry, like a mini-pie that fits easily in your palm. They have a sugary sweet "custard" filling, made of raisins, walnuts, brown sugar, corn syrup, softened butter and eggs.[/quoteost_uid0]
Must. Get.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]They sounds a bit like treacle tarts. Um, but without the treacle.[/colorost_uid0]

Don't look at me. I live here, and I know nothing of butter tarts. I could say that it's a non-BC thing, but that doesn't explain Nan. For the record, I've also never had back bacon, been in an igloo, drunk Molson, or had real Quebec maple syrup.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Same to all of the above, except of course the butter tart thing. Â Obviously, Sa'ar's grandmother was a cruel, cruel person and never fed him delicious homemade butter tarts.
I'm only surprised about the butter tarts because it never occured to me that it was a strictly Canadian thing. Most stuff we eat originated somewhere else, probably due to the fact that -- especially in Saskatchewan -- the majority of our grandparents or great-grandparents were born on another continent and brought their delicious recipes with them.[/colorost_uid0]

She was English, and made me delicious apple pies. The recipe is a family heirloom now. My other English grandma (who lived in Australia) died about 25 years before I was born. [quoteost_uid0]the majority of our grandparents or great-grandparents were born on another continent and brought their delicious recipes with them.[/quoteost_uid0] Half my parents weren't even born on this continent. My only Canadian-born ancestors are my mum and her dad.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Back bacon: Check.
Been in an igloo: sorta check (I made a couple stabs at building ones myself out of snow, one of which was fairly functional) Drunk Molson: nope, I prefer Isenbeck Had real Quebec maple syrup: yep, and it's gooood Also had tortiere (gleh). Picture a meat pie with, like, seven meats in it, one of which may have been Bambi's mother. Never had poutine, though. Also known as Your Francophone Friend on the Merry Way to Heart Disease. *shudder* Good times. Anyone had a jambuster? [/colorost_uid0] |

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I'm Canadian, and I hate butter tarts. I've had bacon, spent a weekend in an igloo, Had Quebec maple syrup, and am too young to drink. The maple syrup was really sweet, I didn't like it much. I guess I'm not an ordinary Canadian.
Although, I find poutine very good, I eat it all the time. The cheese to gravy to french fries ratio has to be just right though. too much of any one isn't good. Yeah, I'm actually part french, so maybe that's why I like it? Eh, I don't care, it's good.[/colorost_uid0] |

What makes you say that? :S[/colorost_uid0][/quoteost_uid0] [color=#000000ost_uid0]It's a Rhode Island thing, and anytime you go twenty feet out of the state people have no idea what you're talking about.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Weird, we have it. I don't drink coffee, though, so I've never actually had it, but everywhere you go in the Netherlands, you get asked whether you want sugar and/or milk in your coffee.
I [iost_uid0]do[/iost_uid0] hope we're talking about the same thing here. :eyeroll:[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Hm, it seems to be pretty widespread in Western Europe. I've certainly never met a German who didn't know of the practice of using milk in your coffee. (Though, as catalina can testify, the term threw me off for a minute before I understood what was meant.)

[color=#000000ost_uid0]lol We're not. Coffee milk is like Chocolate milk. only you add coffee syrup instead of chocolate syrup. Let's see if I can find a link or something...There you go. Enlighten yourselves! [/colorost_uid0]
