when erma asked for mayo for her hamburger, the waiter called us canadians, to which we responded "we are NOT canadian!!!" he said minnesota, michigan, and canada are all the same thing.
thereafter, each time he called us canadian, we insisted that we weren't.

What! Canada gets the same treatment as two small (but wonderful) states!?! How does that work?
And I don't put mayo on a burger. (Even if I could get mayo I don't think I would put it on a burger- that seems odd, although I've seen it done, but it doesn't seem like a "Canadian" thing to do. Gravy and cheese curds on fries, yes, mayo on a burger, no.) :)

You know what's funny? I like mayo on my hamburger because my grandparents ate it that way. My grandparents from southern Georgia. (Kind of the opposite of Canada!)

Several of my friends and family dip their fries in mayo when they can't get their hands on poutine. I don't know if that's a real Canadian thing or not (I love vinegar on my fries), but since moving to The States, I haven't seen any mayo dipping french fry eaters.

I don't think dipping fries in mayo is a Canadian thing. Having gravy and cheese curds on top of fries (like some types of kabob) is a Quebec (Canadian French province) thing.

what's poutine?

Chelle, it's the fries with gravy and curds.
