Had them at PJ20 for the first time last year and the 4 days I was in Milwaukee I think I had them 7 or 8 times. I think the first place I had them was the Wisconsin CHeese Company. My online search has narrowed it to that. Not sure. I was plastered. All I remember is they sold foam cheese hats and kept refilling the sample tray for me. I think I had a beer there too. We also then walked across the street to some bar and played a game where we got to smack a nail into a tree stump. Good times! :lol: I think I had a beer there too. :lol:

    Cheese curds, especially those from Montreal, are best served atop french fries, smothered in gravy. That's the Canadian perspective.

    Yet another reason for me to hate Montreal. :lol:

    As a Toronto sports fan I fully support hating Montreal, but one can never hate their poutine.

    Oh yeah, I always forget that it's not a regular thing everywhere. More for me, I suppose.

    I was up in Burlington, VT seeing a Primus show a few weekends ago with some high school friends. Being that they are so close to Montreal somehow the conversation turned to poutine.

    One of my friends said 'After all of the drinking we are doing tonight I am going to make poutine tomorrow AM. In my toilet!'

    Of course we all laughed and were disgusted....but it really does look like that.

    I read your post, but upon seeing the glorious poutine I couldn't hold back the drool.

    My dad just sent me some over here. Growing up in WI, of course I love them. I miss the Culvers cheese curds too.

    If you put a little garlic salt on them and throw them in the microwave for a few seconds just to melt them a little bit....oh so good.

    Good for you!

    I love 'Natto' so I know what it is to savor something others do not understand. As you posted above....more for me I guess!

    I had to google Nato. I've never been so glad to have a soy allergy before. Good on you for enjoying it, though.

    Poutine is pretty amazing. Had my first plate a few years back, and I was hooked. They now even serve it at the Verizon Center (LA Kings farm team) here in Manchester NH! Hockey AND poutine!

    Nothing better than a great poutine. If you're in Ottawa, it's at Elgin Street diner.

    Life changers indeed! Every time I go north of the cheddar curtain I probably inhale pounds of this delightful little treat. Try the dill cheese curds...mmmmm mmmm mmmm!

    wait this actually needs to be said? are you telling me there are people who don't love cheese curds?

    The Iowa State Fair is home to some of the best curds in the world. (I know that based on no research)

    The dill are the absolute best. The Old Fashioned in Madison has the tastiest fried ones that I have ever eaten. They aren't too heavily breaded, and they come with a side of tiger sauce.

    I think you can buy them pretty much anywhere...I think...other than Smalbany . I didn't have any until PJ20 and haven't had them since.
