Just tried poutine for the first time on the set of . I enjoyed it going in. How it goes from here I’m a bit uncertain.

Fans respond to James Gunn's Metro 麻豆传媒映画poutine pick
Numerous fans commented on Gunn's poutine post, with several pointing out that he didn't get the best batch. Many people mention that Montreal has the best poutine in the country, while others offer better restaurants to try the classic Canadian comfort food in Metro Vancouver.
"Where did you get that? It’s awful. Any Canadian worth their toque knows real poutine is all about the layers. This is shameful. Next time, ask. We can tell you where to get the good shit," wrote .
A few people also shared pictures of what they believe is true poutine.

As a Montrealer, I'll tell you one thing: For a dish that requires only 3 ingredients (fries, cheese curds, gravy), it is AMAZING how many places fuck up poutines. One of my favourite grease spots is a little place called Le Petit Baril, and they serve an AMAZING poutine there...

mentions, however, that "you can’t mention poutine on Twitter without someone claiming it’s not real poutine. They are really protective about their gravy fries."
Gunn also took to social media recently to share a picture of the Peacemaker star John Cena walking down the street. He captioned: "What’s weird is that this is on John’s day off."
In response, a fan has shared a short video of the Peacemaker star walking down the street. In her Twitter post, she writes that he was "covered in fake blood" although it might be difficult to spot in the video. However, she assures that there "is lots of blood."
