(KGTV) — Remember when there was a push 20 years ago to rename french fries "Freedom Fries" after France opposed the invasion of Iraq?
Now there's word a Canadian diner wants to rename the dish poutine because it sounds too much like Putin.
It's true.
Poutine is a popular Canadian dish consisting of french fries and cheese curds, topped with brown gravy.
Le Roy Jucep, a restaurant that claims it invented poutine, is temporarily renaming it "La Frite Fromage Sauce,” which translates to "the fry cheese gravy."
But the move has gotten a lot of backlash, and the restaurant reported receiving death threats after announcing the name change on Facebook.
