Ready for it? There is a drink served in the Yukon, Dawson City which contains the real Human Toe.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You read that right, a real human toe. This drink is a cocktail of fine spirits, the diluter and the most important part of the recipe, the toe. There is the fun to this game. The real challenge in this game is to drink the cocktail, without swallowing the toe or better, let the toe not touch your lips. If you swallow the toe, you will be charged a huge amount of fine!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am not sure if the fine is the punishment or the saviour!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Credit: Countryfile.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nDo you believe in the devil? Or the bad omen? No? Good! If yes? It\u2019s still good! Here is a very interesting cultural practice that is followed in the country of Canada that you may find very interesting and amusing. No one in Alberta plucks the blackberries after the date of 11th October. Strange right? Guess why! They believe that picking berries after the 11th of October is considered bad luck and the berries after the date are considered to be picked by the devil. Anybody picking berries is considered to be calling in the devil and the bad luck that comes with it.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Devotion for the Hockey with the hockey night:<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"Strange](\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAA8AAAAIcAQMAAAADk1U4AAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAFZJREFUeNrtwTEBAAAAwqD1T20IX6AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAB4Df88AAHZoHy8AAAAAElFTkSuQmCC\")

The Canadians basically preach hockey so much so the love for it is almost equivalent to the devotion of a devotee to a religion. There is a night completely devoted to the sport hokey and the gathering made for it is almost treated as a religious and taken pretty seriously by the people of the country.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You must be thinking about what\u2019s next, right? Okay so be ready for this one too. There is a tradition in Canada called Kissing the Cod. the person practising the culture is required to kiss the dead cod on the mouth and follow the kiss by gulping down a shot of rum called \u2018Skreech\u201d. This is definitely is a one-of-a-kind experience and tried by a lot of travellers too.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Credit: ThePleasantDream<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nDo you believe that eating sweets before doing something will bring success, or that the cat crosses the road before you start to head out to do something, the task is most likely to fail and it is a bad omen so you must stop whatever you are doing. Here is a similar tradition in Canada. It is believed that the head of the fish must be eaten first and then the rest of the body. Eating the head forest brings good luck. This practice is seen to be followed by many people in Canada.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Guilty pleasure<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"Strange](\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAABAAAAAIAAQMAAAAmA4z6AAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAFZJREFUeNrtwQEBAAAAgiD\/r25IQAEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADvBgIPAAGwqQ4MAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC\")
Credit: Vecteezy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nWhat is your guilty pleasure? Everyone has some or the other things that they know are not very correct but doing it some or the other way seems to give pleasure and the people are often seen to be doing it for pleasure. You will be shocked to know that the country Canada has a common guilty pleasure. Can you guess what? Let me tell you. There is a dish in Canada called Poutine. The whole country seems to be in love with the dish, though it holds a lot of calories. Still, the ingredients are not the right sort of mix, but yet the dish has a huge fanbase. Can you guess the ingredients? The dish is made up of french fries, cheese curd and gravy. It is an iconic dish in the country.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With this, our list ends but the cultural practices do not. There are still many things that are being followed, practised and enjoyed across Canada. Every town of the country has a story and at least one strange practice they do in the name of culture that is amusing if considered generally. Believe me, these traditions are fun sometimes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
