Why Tourtiere is the Ultimate Pre-Game Meal

[joeg 69]

Now look, I’m not one to make ultimatums or tell people they are wrong. BUT, if you think anything other than Tortiere being the correct pre-game meal than not only are you wrong, but your taste in food needs to be re-evaluated.

 

Let us go over some facts, shall we?

 

FACT: Pre-game meals should consist primarily of carbohydrate rich foods

 

FACT: What carbohydrates are better than beautiful, flaky pie crust AND some delicious potatoes in that beauty

 

FACT: It’s Canadian, which should put it ahead already

 

FACT: What type of meat do you want? Pork? Done! Veal? Done! Beef? Done! Fish? That is a hard no and I redirect you to the beginning of this article and suggest you re-evaluate your food preferences.

 

FACT: My dad makes an absolute killer tourtiere that he learnt from his father. Am I biased?

 

NO! No amount of bias could overcome the glorious creation known as tourtiere.

 

That’s really all I got. If you want to be like the rest of the herd, sure, then go have some pasta. Have a sandwich or something simple. It will work, I guess. But if you want to stand out amongst the herd. If you want to treat you stomach to a masterpiece that will make you weep. If you want to fuel your body AND treat your body, then there is only one option.
