What kind of butter do you use?

I don't know why I want to know, I was just buttering Toast this afternoon thinking, humm what kinds of butter do Women buy for their family. Our choice (actually it's not butter but Margerine) is Becel Olive Oil Margerine.

One thing I do though is I always leave the butter out on the counter. I hate it when someone puts it in the fridge and when I want to butter my toast. Argh!!; ▶ Reply to This

Im with you Barbara I hate it when its been in the fridge, I got a butter tray to keep the sticks in there covered on the counter it. One thing I like about up here is it dont get to hot. Last summer we lived in Cali and it kept melting it wasn't fun here it just stayed soft :); ▶ Reply to This

It's locally made & it comes in huge 2.5lb bricks, which make it a bit of pain to measure out because you have to weigh it rather than having those nice handy 'one tablespoon' marks like on sticks of butter.
But we think it tastes better & it's actually a bit cheaper in bulk than the sticks; ▶ Reply to This

We prefer it room temperature or spreadable. I often mix it with an equal amount of grapeseed oil to make a heart friendly spreadable butter.; ▶ Reply to This

I know we don't eat right most of the time, so I buy as much as I can that's fortified with extra nutrients! Thankfully, it has a really good, creamy taste... it doesn't taste icky and fake.; ▶ Reply to This

Hubby grew up on a dairy farm so there was really no other choice when we got married. ;-); ▶ Reply to This
