Very cool to see how similar yet different regional food is in south east asia. How does mung bean paste taste compared to red bean paste?

I've always known them interchangeably but they are not the same

I read that it's basically the same ingredients but the execution is different, I imagine they taste different.

I found it less sweet/rich (hard to recall.... if you managed to catch me right after I taste one, I will let you know).

Same with Green Bean paste; when cold, you can kinda use it interchangely, but there is a little bit of grassy flavor
