The ‘butter or no butter’ thread has made me curious. My kids reckon loving butter is a generational thing, but I’d be surprised if all the butter lovers on here are over 50.

I’ll start. I’m 67 and I love butter.

I can take it or leave it!

39 and love butter.

Wait, surely everyone loves butter? What has age got to do with it?

sj257 · 10/11/2018 19:03
  1. Only on toast...
earlybirdhasanap · 10/11/2018 19:03

29 and it's got to be real butter. I won't touch spread. I'd rather have dry toast than horrible fake spread.

48, with a butter tip for hot toast lovers ... if you are making toast and your butter is in the fridge, use a cheese slicer to create perfect little butter sheets that you can neatly lay over your toast as soon as it comes out of the toaster Wink

34 love it, try not to eat as much of it as I would like to...

MrsStrowman · 10/11/2018 19:05

@Tashface that is a tip that deserves to be shared on a wider format than this!

LMDC · 10/11/2018 19:09

Early 20's & love it!

I love butter. The flavour is gorgeous. Nothing wrong with butter too, in moderation. It has a lot of good vitamins. It's only when people have tons of it with bread every day and maybe use in cooking that it's bad for you.

Yum! Butter all the way.

ThePinkOcelot · 10/11/2018 19:14

I’m 51 and I only use spread. I don’t dislike butter, Jojo st don’t think to buy it tbh!

AmieGeo · 10/11/2018 19:18
  1. The more butter the better. Especially on crumpets!

  1. Butter's alright! Got to be the spreadable stuff though.

FantasticBadger · 10/11/2018 19:23

I am nearly 50 and have never knowingly eaten margarine. Salty butter all the way!

Livinglavidal0ca · 10/11/2018 19:24

21 and love proper butter with homemade bread and baked camembert!

I’m 47 and I love butter.

mycatplotsdeath · 10/11/2018 19:25

I'm 45 and hate butter

JustDanceAddict · 10/11/2018 19:25

DD (16) likes it but DS (14) def not as keen.

Pinkprincess1978 · 10/11/2018 19:28

I'm 40 and always thought I hated butter but I think that's because we had ultra cheap margarine as a kid which I didn't like. I still only like a thin spreading on bread etc unlike DH who slathered it on thick!
