I believe, but don't hold me to it, you can get it in Nova Scotia where they eat some of the old traditional things being of Scottish/Irish origins I believe. I could really go a plate of that right now.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087140585742801854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-18496580856666323402008-09-02T20:31:00.000-04:002008-09-02T20:31:00.000-04:00I like goats cheese and mozarella.

We used to have it on toast whenI was a child, yummy.hrugaarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08621922879300266376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-81347925189303306362008-09-02T11:38:00.000-04:002008-09-02T11:38:00.000-04:00Yes, I think you can get take away pasta here.

Of course paté de foie gras is exactly that, liver paste in French. Not that I would consider Shippams, for instance, to be a patch on foie gras.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087140585742801854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-78054263968061903342008-09-02T10:51:00.000-04:002008-09-02T10:51:00.000-04:00Jo -- forgot to say about pasta.

I wonder if it's an Italian idea or whether it's something imported from the States.<BR/><BR/>MarilynMarilyn Z.

In fact, one gets the large Mozzarella and the small one, so maybe a small Mozzarella is what is called a Bocconcini. <BR/><BR/>Caviar?! Wouldn't say no. But I will if offered foie gras. Remember Michael Corda? Was married to Merle Oberon. He used to eat foie gras by the bucket and called it ... liver paste ...<BR/><BR/>MarilynMarilyn Z.
