Soggy Fries

by Jennifer McLean
(Asheville, NC, USA)

You know you're a Canadian ex-pat if:
You refuse to eat french fries if you can't drown them in vinegar (plain white vinegar, the kind you clean windows with). You're tired of explaining this to your American friends. You sob with joy when you return to Canada and see that every fast food joint has vinegar on the table - you don't even have to ask for it.

(South Carolina)

So my Canadian friend says it's great being Canadian. And I say that's because politicians there can admit to smoking drugs and more people will vote for them.

(Disclaimer: Politics being a sensitive subject, I'd like to stress that the above submission is not the opinion of SwanParadise.com, but is merely the submission of a visitor.)

While on a trip to Australia, a local asked if we lived above ground in Canada! They thought it was so cold here that we had to live underground year round! True story!
