Answer 7

There are two answers to your question.  The first, most commonly known  (as you can see by the previous answers) is a heart attack on a plate... And the proper order of things is:

Fries, cheese curds, gravy.  That way the gravy melts the cheese, and you end up with goowey goodness.

The second is an Acadian dish... Poutine Rapé.  Grated potatoes, stuffed with a pork mixture, shaped into a ball and then boiled.  Served with ketchup or brown sugar.  What a waste of a perfectly good potato.
