Butter

[ridger]

Why is there no nice butter anymore? So many brands and all so disappointing. For example. I can't believe its not butter, have they ever tried butter? Brilliantly buttery, made with 50% vegetable oil and 5% reconstituted buttermilk. Tastes nothing like butter. Utterly butterly, rapeseed oil again, tastes disappointing and the first knife full is yellow and just below it is a grey colour. Anyway, my point is that these spreads are giving butter a bad name. I used to love watching my granny with the butter Pat's, shaping the butter, and it was good.

Lurpak.

My consumption is a big part of why it's such a strong brand.

I've never understand why spreads are popular. There is no need to keep butter in the fridge and then it spreads just fine.

Aldi’s West Country butter with sea salt crystals in. Spread it quarter of an inch thick and you’re away

Doesn't that make the floor rather dangerous and the groceries generally manky?

If I don’t have homemade butter the only thing I buy is kerrygold. American butter from the store may as well be soap.

I don’t spread butter, I keep it in the fridge and cut it off in 1/4” slices like cheese.

Ballyrashane butter.

Is Lurpak still made with Danish butter, but Arla suppliers get a cut or something like that

 

[JeepJeep]

Aldi version of Lurpak is good as well to be fair.

Any butter is better than the excuses of spread they try to pass of as a healthy option
