i would think it depends on what the garlic spread has in it. of course real
garlic bread is the best way to go. get some hole cloves of garlic, put them
in a foil pouch with a little olive oil, salt and pepper. stick them in the
oven (a toaster oven is great for this) at 350f and cook them until nicely
softened. (about 30 mins) take the cooled softened garlic and using a fork,
smash it thoroughly with some butter. smear this ambrosia on your favorite
bread and toast in the oven until lightly browned. enjoy! you can even
sprinkle a little parmesan cheese on it before toasting to jazz it up a bit.
actually, i ususally roast a whole head of garlic til softened and smash it
up with a whole stick of butter and keep it in the fridge. it's great on
nearly anything that butter goes on. i even cook eggs in it.
