Poutine@Canada (PART 2 of 3)





So, Kato, you've found a Canadian dish, huh?



Yes, I have.

Have you eaten that Canadian stuff yet?

No, not yet, but I'll try some one of these days.

You know, Kato, it's not so healthy.

Why not?

Take a close look at this poutine!

This stuff is made with french fries, topped with a brown gravy-like sauce and cheese curds.  Don't you think it is so repulsive?



Repulsive?  Disgusting---you mean?  Is that your first impression of the above dish?

Actually, I've never tasted it, myself.

Why not?

... 'cause it looks so unhealthy.  You know, Kato, this poutine is supposed to be junk food.

C'mon, Diane.  Poutine is a Canadian dish and you're a Canadian, aren't you?

Yes, I am.

Then you should be proud of any Canadian dish, shouldn't you?

No, not all of the Canadian dishes.

Why not?

Kato, have you ever heard of the obesity epidemic?

What the heck is the obesity epidemic?

I keep reading about the obesity epidemic these days.  In 2004, approximately 6.8 million Canadian adults ages 20 to 64 were overweight, and an additional 4.5 million were obese.

You must be kidding.

I'm quite serious.

Diane, are you saying that 7 million Canadians were overweight ten years ago?

Yes, and I see many more in these days.  They say, dramatic increases in overweight and obesity among Canadians over the past 30 years have been deemed to constitute an “epidemic.”

Five million Canadians are obese...  No kidding!  And Diane, are you saying that poutine---a Canadian dish---contributes to the obesity emidemic?



I would say so.  If I keep eating poutine, I'll be like this.

I see... So, you don't want to eat pouline, do you?



No, I don't.

Then what's your favorite healthy dish, Diane?

Well ... one of my nutrition-minded friends recommends “eating healthy” and loading up on fruits, veggies, whole grains and lean meats.

Which fruits and veggies? What kinds of whole grains? And what constitutes a lean meat?

You don't have to be specific.  Any fruit, any veggie, any whole grain, and any mean meat will do.

So, Diane, you're quite concious about healthy diet, aren't you?

Yes, I am.  With the right kinds of foods, I can stave off heart disease, stay slim and boost my immune system.

I see...

Tell me, Kato, you like sushi, don't you?

Yes, of course, I do.  I was born in Japan and brought up over there.  Naturally, sushi is one of my favorites.

My nutrition-minded friend always tells me to eat more seafood.  So I want you to tell me how to make delicious sushi.



Okay... First of all, you must make sushi rice.

Sushi rice is the base of delicious suchi.  If it is far below standard, then your sushi is ruined.  So be careful.  Once you make good sushi rice, then follow the next steps.
