Question: What's the difference between a meat "spread", "pate", and "paste"!?
What's the difference between a meat "spread", "pate", and "paste" according to European law!? What are the proportions of actual meat in each!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
A meat spread is a base of meat and spices, fillers and sometime a vegetable element like pickles or onions or parsley, a pate is more meat and other products more a percentage of liver, and a terrine is more a meatloaf, while pate is more a fine, softer mix of either meat and liver or sometime just liver, spices and binder, some have alcohol used in them and flavours!.

A paste would be the same as a pate but again more just meat based and it is sometimes cooked or raw like sausage meat or filling that can be bought at the butcher shops!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

pate sounds cuter, so i like them better for thie meats!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
