My country.. Poutine, maple syrup, pink cream soda, bannock, "montreal smoked meat" sandwiches.. There's a lot of them. Canada is made up of a lot of countries' cuisine mixed together. For my actual area.. I don't think we have any specifically. EDIT: BUT, a few hours from where I live is where the naniamo bar was created :)

does the pink cream soda have a purpose (i.e. an extra flavor, like strawberry?) or is it just colored for gits and shiggles

Well admittedly I've never had "regular" cream soda to compare, but it doesn't have 'extra flavor' from what I've heard regular tastes like. I think we just want to be special, and/or it was colored so if you dropped a bottle of it off your snowmobile on the way back to your igloo, you wouldn't lose it in the snow.

Let's see if this works. So it's basically raw fish cut in pieces and marinated in lemon juice with corn, sweet potatoes, onions, lettuce and some other ingredients that I forgot. ;p

I didn't know that many countries had variations of Ceviche.

oh yea, all kinds. I forgot where Anthony Bourdain went (a cook with a travel show), it was some South American country though, and the ceviche he had was almost like a cold soup...raw fish cooked in citrus juice, but with a lot of the juice-broth in it and vegetables (mostly chile and onions).

Some ceviche is served almost like carpaccio, cut paper thin, layered on a cold plate, and drizzled with lime juice.

Also the local seafood plays a role; some ceviches consists of strictly whitefish, others use salmon and darker fish like tuna, while other can have oysers, clams, shrimps, scallops, etc.

I love regional variations of the same dish

Interesting post. As some of you know, I am from Spain. Specifically from Bilbao, in the Vasque Country. Our gastronomic culture is famous all over the world. But if I have to say only one thing, the Codfish in Biscayan sauce is delicious.

My home state is a mixed bag: known for seafood, Southern cooking, and Hispanic dishes.
