The Jones Soda brand has decided to show just how much it loves its North American neighbors by releasing a soda flavor that is dedicated to the most hallowed of Canadian dishes: Poutine. Yes, you read that right, the soda brand is releasing a poutine-flavored edition across a few regions in Canada. If you live in Quebec, Ontario or Vancouver, you’re in luck.
The wacky pop flavor is described as having a “nice balance of rich, savory gravy over a starchy potato base.” If that doesn’t sound heavy enough for you, get this, it’s also: “accented with those fatty, cheesy notes you expect in a plate of poutine.”
As an Irish woman who has developed a profound love for poutine, I think I would (cautiously) give this soda pop a try.
