Butter?!

[theshadeofgreen]

Not exciting, I'm afraid... but I'm curious. So due to lack of availability and because it's £1000000 per pack I've picked up salted block butter rather than Lurpack in today's shop.

I have fond memories of helping my grandmother to make sandwiches using her lovely soft butter from her china butter dish so had a smile to myself. I found out a butter dish and popped it on the side, already looking forward to slathering it on tiger loaf toast tomorrow morning.

DH walked in the kitchen, took a good look at said butter dish as if it may explode and then made a show of putting it back in the fridge. I watched him, and then told him I'm sure it's fine leaving covered on the side, just like my granny always did.

He is adamant butter can't be left out... it will go bad, it will poison us, the children will never be the same etc etc

So who's right MN? Can I leave my butter out or am I dooming us to stomach upset and horrible sandwiches?

Lurpack is unsalted butter. I like it occasionally but prefer the salted kind for daily use

Why do people keep coming on here to write things that are obviously untrue? Do you do this in real life, too?

I don’t eat butter.
Life is so much simpler for me 😊

Lurpak comes in both salted and unsalted versions and in both a block and a tub

I buy own brand block butter as its cheaper

I love proper salted butter. I keep it in the fridge until I want to use it and then get it out and cut off little blocks so it melts enough to use by the time my toast is done etc.

Lurpack is absolutely disgusting. Shudders. It doesn’t taste like proper butter at all!
