Why the hell is poutine not a common American fast food item? This shit would fit right in here! Gimme dat McPoutine! (Actually this one would probably be at Arby's but not nearly as good looking. GOD DAYUM I wanna eat the picture!)
McDonald's poutine is shit for the record.
Wait... they actually have poutine at McDonald's somewhere?! :O
In Canada, pretty much every fast food restaurant has poutine these days. McDonalds is the worst one IMO. They have the best fries for plain fries, but for poutine, Burger King is much better (and offers poutine with bacon, which is the best combination).
Poutine is also super common in sit down restaurants, which often offer fancier versions. Buffalo chicken poutine is a really fun combination. Some places will have like half a dozen different poutine options, with stuff like hamburger poutine, loaded with multiple kinds of cheese, mushroom gravy, butter chicken, pulled pork, etc.

Burger King poutine is the ultimate shit tier. The gravy tastes like fucking vegetable soup for some reason. McDonalds is not much better but at least it's edible.
Here's my fast food poutine tier list:
S- A&W - ( I gobble this shit up like turkey dinner. Happy Thanksgiving, btw)
A- Smoke's, NYF (similar chains, I would give NYF the edge here though as their fries and gravy are more appealing. Smoke's has more options though, which doesn't affect my ranking whatsoever because I exclusively eat classic poutine, but it is worth mentioning.)
B- Arby's, Dairy Queen (Arby's curly fries suit poutine well, they pick up a lot of gravy and cheese. Dairy Queen just does all elements well.)
C- Wendy's (the fries are great, but the rest is always weak)
D- McDonald's (I never order it, the gravy is meh at best and McDonald's fries are not suited to poutine)
F- Burger King (the fries are fine but the gravy is the weirdest shit and ruins the whole experience. I've ordered it a couple times to be sure and have never finished it. I don't go to Burger King for this reason)
I will not be taking arguments.
