Ahh poutine. Looked great up until the curd cheese which I mistakenly correctly read as crud cheese.

I think the oot and aboot sound is an approximation of a more glottal pronunciation of the ow sound. When I say out my throat is relaxed and the sound comes from the front of my mouth. When I imitate that girl I have to make the sound from the back of my throat, almost glottal. If I try to make that sound in the front of my mouth it sounds like oot.

I'm sure a speech therapist has got proper terms for all that, eh?
