May be used as a verb

Although poutine is a wonderful dish by itself, it can be used to augment the flaor and nutritional value of many other foods. For example, consider the following exchange:

Waiter: What would you like for dinner?
Hungry ninja: I'll start with the pork chops with applesauce and bannock.
Waiter: Would you like to *poutine* that order? (Ed. note - emphasis added)
Hungry ninja (reluctantly, inevitably): Yeah, sure.

Note that the hungry ninja has just placed an order for chops, applesauce, hearty griddle-fried cakes of bread, all smothered in gravy and cheese curds.

There's so much material here for me to make a snarky remark, yet I can't think of a single one.

Fries with cheese curds and gravy. A delicious treat from our neighbors to the north. Unless you live at the north pole, in which case they're your neighbors to the south.
