Plant-based pâtés: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category covers a range of savoury spreads and dips made from plant-based ingredients. Examples include houmous, olive tapenades, and vegetable or herb pâtés. These products are typically found in jars, tubs, or tubes. The ingredient list shows the components used, with the main ingredients appearing first. For spreads like these, the primary ingredients are often pulses (such as chickpeas in houmous), vegetables, or olives. The list will also detail added oils, flavourings, and preservatives. Nutrition labels provide information on energy, fat, saturated fat, carbohydrates, sugars, fibre, and salt per serving. For plant-based pâtés, the fibre content can be a notable feature, especially in products based on pulses or vegetables. Salt content is also declared, and the NHS Eatwell Guide advises that adults should have no more than 6g of salt a day. Information on sugars, including free sugars, is also present, aligning with general dietary guidance that free sugars should not exceed 5% of total dietary energy. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
