Quite Good!
I received five flavors of the Vegan Pates from Eat Well: Zesty Apple, Red Pepper Olive, Vegetable, Peppercorn, and Mushroom. We served them as hors d'oeuvres, with water crackers, before Christmas dinner and my family thought that they were pretty good! The overall sense was that the apple would be best used as a topping for a dessert, pancakes or even toast for breakfast rather than being served as a traditional pate. All the others could use some additional spicing-up, but surprisingly all but the Vegetable even tasted a bit like liver pate. As well, if they had been a bit more solid rather than hummus-like they would have been more appetizing esthetically (maybe we should have refrigerated them before serving?). Overall favorite was the Peppercorn, followed by the Red Pepper and Olive. Another thought was that these would serve as great sandwich fillings! Would we buy them again? The jury is still out, but as a Veg*n-in-process, it was great to have an alternative to all of the non-veggie items on the hors d'ouevres plates with just a pop of the pull-top! And it was great to be able to refrigerate the leftovers with the included resealable cover.
Just Okay...
I really didn't want to leave a review of these products because I knew it wouldn't be stellar, but I've been asked twice now to give my opinion. I would not buy these pates, nor would I serve them to guests. My husband, however, "didn't mind" them, and used them straight outta the container as a dip for pretzels and crackers.
