Vanessa Chiasson is a Canadian writer specializing in travel, human interest narratives, and digital marketing. Her blog, TurnipseedTravel.com was named one of the world’s 100 most influential travel blogs by the Obama White House in 2014. Her past (mis)adventures include running a marathon in Paris, working on a Malawian fish farm, and getting seasick on Amsterdam’s Houseboat Museum. Now based in Ottawa, Vanessa grew up on Cape Breton Island and credits her Maritime roots for her love of storytelling.
There’s seemingly no limit to funny food names in Canada’s Maritime provinces. Blueberry grunt, Fat Archies, and even pets de soeurs (“nun farts”) are all popular east coast treats. But when it comes to inventive monikers, Chicken Bones has them all beat.
