Here's a little food game I stumble upon on a post from Maple Syrup and Poutine Blog. The concept is simple: checklist as many must eat Canadian foods as you can.
The rules are simple and go as follow:
1) Copy the list below into your blog or journal, including these instructions.
2) Bold all the items you’ve eaten.
3) Cross out any items that you would never consider eating.
4) Post a comment here linking to your results.
