Every time I've had poutine it has been underwhelming

I've had an amazing poutine, but that's because it used a dark oxtail gravy instead of the typical chicken gravy.

Sriracha is fairly mediocre. There, I said it.

I'm flattered that you think my posting even reaches mediocrity. Mundane irrelevance is very much more in my comfort zone.

Sauces that achieve the mass-market appeal that e.g. Sriracha does will naturally be 'mediocre' - otherwise they cannot appeal to the biomass - it is the safest market position, really. The same goes for food - McDonalds has never been called 'exceptional', 'exclusive', 'innovative' or 'surprising', because that would threaten their market position. So yeah - Sriracha is mediocre, it is its nature - it is vanilla, it is missionary style sex under the blankets with the lights off, it is consultancy from deloitte or IBM, it is Captain America at the box office, it is a subaru - it does not offend, it does not surprise, it is a 50 year old hooker.

A typical Canadian-Ukrainian sauce for holopchi is ketchup diluted in water. Its basically the only time I ate ketchup as a kid (i didn't like it, but I was otherwise not a picky eater). Also sour cream on everything. I was at a poutinery in St. Johns once and a dude added salt to his poutine. Not just a little, like poured it on. But I've lived far inland most of my life so I don't know anything about the salty sea life.

For early morning road trips, McDonald's is surprisingly exceptional.

Seriously, though, I know a lot of people who think their coffee is the best. Also, viva la sausage McMuffin with half a hash brown inside.

Sausage mcgriddle with a round egg, add hot sauce and a chunk of hash brown. The mcmuffin muffin is a depressing imitation of an English Muffin.

I will admit that I've started more than one road trip with a breakfast stop at McDonalds. Their biscuit sandwiches are surprisingly good. Coffee is unsurprisingly mediocre, though.

Mr. Wiggles posted:Once you start making ketchup at home, though, the game really changes. A lot of the recipes from the late 19th century are super savoury and complex, and help you understand why ketchup became so popular. Anyway, the simple tomato ketchup still has much to recommend it, the disappointment of most storebought ketchups being that they're too sweet and one-note.

I feel bad for you people who don't have Bojangles and have to settle for McDonald's.

I am lucky enough to live in the distribution area of Portland Ketchup Company. They make tomato ketchup and yellow mustard, but the ketchup has some complexity and the slightly sweet acidity of perfectly ripe tomatoes, while the mustard is hands down the best yellow mustard I've ever eaten.

I once had a bacon Bloody Mary with a strip of bacon sticking out of it. It was the grossest drink I've ever tasted, not including random concoctions we threw together in college.

In Minneapolis, my Bloody Mary arrived with cheese and and a shot of beer. This was before hipsters began adding unnecessary crap to drinks. Or grew beards.

I like my bloody Marys with cranberry juice instead of tomato, extra vodka, and hold the Worcestershire and garnish.
