Vegetarian in Montreal: Poutine

If you are a new vegetarian or simply live in an area with many veggie-heads, you might not have experienced this tidbit. Never assume a dish is vegetarian - even if there is no meat listed in the description. One prime example is poutine - which is made with meat-grease. We were lucky to ask before ordering and found this one out by chance. Don't be caught unawares - if you are vegetarian, ask before you order any dish. Vegetarianism hasn't spread through Canada as much as the US (yet).

To prevent any possible meat-related schemes entering your meal, seek out vegan or vegetarian restaurants that do not serve any meat products. You might pay a little more, but it's worth it.
