Well until someone stops being lazy and thinks of an english word for pate, I'm too lazy to use the correct symbols.

I pronounce that as pay-t.

I did get sent the codes for all the accents, etc, but can't be bothered learning them.

Pay-t?! Surely you see it as 'Payt'.

 

Pate. Payt. Pate. Payt.

 

But I find it quite incredible that despite not knowing French the symbols somehow make you pronounce words differently in your head. I still had a tiny amount of respect because you owned up to exactly how you googled the symbols, that has now vanished.

meh i prefer foie gras

I agree don't you find the suffering really improves the texture?

I admit to loving foie gras. I'd go as far as to say it's sublime.

I easily disconnect myself from the ethical side. Which is worrying.

^ When it comes to foie gras, once you tasted it, the notion of ethic just disappears under the souvenir of the incomparable deliciousness.

 

I really wish I felt sorry for those animals. I usually do. But my love for foie gras is just too strong.

 

We only eat foie gras like once or twice a year though.

that sounds that sodden/mouldy grass that cows won't touch :huh:

like foi that grass is gross

Bump.

 

Because Alien Radio mentioned it. :|

Bump again become Megalomania mentioned it.;)

My mum just made me some toasts with pâté and for some reason it reminded me of this thread :shrug:

 

I love pâté

I can never remember how to pronounce it properly and say 'payt' all in one syllable (like paint without the n)

Soooooo... it's both?

It's pah-té

 

There's no reason why it should be payt in English if it's pâté in French :angry:

I love the local hot pate on bread :wacky:
