Cretons

Cretons is a flavorful Canadian meat spread consisting of ground pork, lard, breadcrumbs, and milk. It is traditionally produced in Québéc. The spread is typically flavored with garlic, cloves, ginger, celery, parsley, nutmeg, cinnamon, onions, and allspice. Its texture is fatty, creamy and tender, and it is often served for breakfast, when it is paired with toast. If the spread is based on veal, poultry, or any meat that is not pork, it is then called a cretonnade.
