    It’s cheese curds and gravy that make it a poutine, not cheese. You can put cheese AND cheese curds on a poutine along with other stuff, but without cheese curds, all you have is fries and gravy with assorted hangers on.

      This is correct. I used to live in southern US and could not find any place that served even something similar to poutine much less actual poutine with cheese curds. Youd think they would be more into that stuff its got fried stuff, gravy and whatnot
