MAN! Would I love to go there. First of all, I didn't know there was a difference in the Canadian bacon. So I'd love to try the authentic kind. Second, I love going to markets, stores, food stalls, groceries, all over the world. You can learn a lot about a culture and people from how the locals shop.
I also didn't know there was another name for French Fries with gravy on it until I learned a bit more about Canada either. A lot of country folk in certain areas of the states eat that as well as what they call gravy bread. Which is what the name implies.

I'd like to clarify: There's no real difference in the bacon. The "Canadian bacon" in the US is exactly the same as the "back bacon" sold in Canada. It's a cured pork loin, not a kind of ham.

This is not the same thing as cheese fries with gravy! Poutine is its own food group, and deserves to be appreciated as such. I recommend that you head to Quebec and try it sometime, because not only is it a very tasty treat, but Quebec is a great place to visit. I'm a strong proponent of diversity, and when it comes to food, the language is universal.
