TikTok is known for launching new trends almost every week. If you spend a lot of time online, you probably find yourself eager to see what comes next. The food world is no exception. For example, a viral cucumber salad recently turned even cucumber skeptics into fans — though some remained unsure.
Now, a new craze is spreading: a simple Culver’s hack that gives the chain’s fries a Canadian flair. The trick is to order two extra items along with the fries — cheese curds and beef gravy. When you pour these over Culver’s crinkle-cut fries, you get a dish that resembles poutine, Canada’s famous comfort food.
The key ingredient here is the cheese curds, which are made from Wisconsin cheddar. They are crispy and fragrant on the outside, with a soft, gooey cheese center that melts in your mouth.
Does it taste exactly like authentic Canadian poutine? Not quite. The flavors are different, mainly because Culver’s cheese curds have a sharper, more zesty taste. True poutine lovers might not agree with this version. But for people in Wisconsin, where real poutine is harder to find, this creative take is a tasty alternative.
Experimenting with Culver’s Sauces
Since this dish is already a twist on the original, there is room to try other sauces without upsetting fans of traditional poutine. Culver’s offers many sauces that can change the flavor of your custom creation — some good, some risky.
If you want it cheesier, try adding Wisconsin cheddar cheese sauce. For a spicy kick, Frank’s RedHot buffalo sauce works well, though its tanginess may surprise some, so add it slowly.
Many fans enjoy Culver’s signature sauce. It has a mild tang, softened by buttermilk, Parmesan, and blue cheese. This makes it less sharp and easier to enjoy.
Another option is marinara sauce. It pairs nicely with cheese curds and gives a flavor similar to mozzarella sticks, a classic cheesy snack with French roots.
