My sister-in-law had been telling me about Beaver Tails for the last few years and they sounded so yummy. I finally had one on Canada Day in Ottawa - the original kind with cinnamon and sugar. Basically it’s just poori, but it was quite yummy while it was still hot, very filling too. I’m sure they taste even better during winter.
Are they like small donunts and sorry for asking but what's poori ?
no theyre flattish and wide, shaped like beaver tails and basically made out of dough and fried. Poori as in halwa-poori ? you know, roti thats fried.
Oh very thanks for explaining Cat Women, now I understand what you mean, man I didn't try those in TO hmm.
Here in Austria, we have something like that but with garlic spread .. man they are tasty .. but leaves you with a stinky garlic smell in your mouth afterwards.
Beaver tails (roti) filled with minced Canadian goose feet (shami kebab) and topped off with Grizzly bear drool (chutney) for a truly scrumptious meal on the go. Canadian outback stylee. 
Chewy mint-flavored Moose droppings for dessert. :love:
phew! I thought you were talking about eating actual beavers tails for a moment.
^ so did I 
i mean, i’ve heard of people eating oxtails, so it wouldn’t have surprised me one bit..
oxtail soup is really popular in traditional british restaurants, you don't actually eat the tail though - its used to flavour a stock which is made into soup.
^^ oh i’m glad to hear that. but i’m learning to get over unique food choices. i remember back when i wondered how anyone could ever eat paya, and now i find it just
^ LOL, but isn't oxtail like paya or nihari? I mean we eat trotters so why not oxtail or smoked tongue. hehe
my problem Cat, is an over active imagination. mention oxtail to me and i picture a whole tail, with the hair and all :yukh:
when i was a kid, my parents took me to a farm. i fed hay to a beautiful horse, and i got to see its ugly yellow teeth and smelly purple tongue. that’s what i imagine when anyone mentions smoke tongue 
^ hosla rakho jan
I know what you mean Catwoman, whenever I read about sweetmeats on a menu I always assume its going to be some kind of dessert or bakery item. I always forget that its actually sheeps testicles they're talking about.
^ hein?? shahreen you’ve totally lost me there! sweet meats and sheeps testicles? 
^does not help the imagination :(
