Best Answer

The Spanish eat the same basic ingredients that all Europeans tend to use. The difference between nationalities is how the ingredients are combined.

The main difference is what is used for grease/oil. While the northern Europeans had access to ice it allowed them to use and store dairy products (especially butter), the Mediterranean Europeans used olive oil because they couldn't store butter. Now, with the advent of refrigerators and international transportation systems they all use a little bit of everything.

The one single food that almost 100% of the Spanish eat at almost every meal is bread. Bread is baked fresh every day and purchassed every morning for consumption that same day. They also seem to prefer more seafood than some others.
