When I first visited Ottawa, I was taken aback by a famous delicacy called BeaverTails. The beavers, with their shiny teeth, looked so cute – why would anyone want to eat their tails? Don't Canadians adore small animals?

Later, I found out BeaverTails are actually a type of pastry dessert, named for its similar shape to a beaver's tail.

Intrigued, I decided to try it. It was a type of fried bread—like the large, greasy pancakes often eaten for breakfast in Northern China—but with a sweet twist. It was topped with a layer of cream, and even added chocolate and bananas.

I found it rather sweet, very much fitting the Canadian palate, but not very suitable for my Chinese stomach. But then I thought of the Mr. Beaver commercials I watched as a kid, and came to like them.

It turns out that BeaverTails are a snack originally invented in Ottawa. When Obama visited Canada in 2009, he made a point to purchase and eat BeaverTails, and he couldn't stop praising them. Now they are sold in many parts of Eastern Canada.
