wouldn't a scoop of butter in a spoon then held over the toaster be wiser?

Our butter lives in the pantry this time of year, some days its still too hard for bread in the mornings.

No frankenbutter in this household. Butter is just to good..

Butter puts your cholesterol up so they say. Margarine tastes like poison and gives you cancer.

Butter spreads beautiful this time of year if not refrigerated and is the only thing to fry a steak in. It's good on bread too they reckon.

Butter is not responsible for cholesterol. Butter is good fats. It's carbohydrates that adjusts your cholesterol, like cereals, bread, packaged crap, cheap arse chocolate, beer etc. Reduce your carbs and watch you cholesterol improve.

Look at the process to get butter, then compare that to produce margarine

Another good experiment to do in some one else's kitchen is to take the lid off the almost full tomato sauce bottle, then top up with baking soda, replace the lid, put the bottle away and then wait.

Multiple ways to do spreadable butter.

You can get modern soft spreads that are churned with water. They stay spreadable but don't have the oil and crap in them.

Be very patient and spread very small amounts very carefully. That works fine.

Use ordinary butter and keep it in the cupboard. My mum did that and I'm still here many decades later.

One thing that works for me, place the chunks of butter on the bread. Add Vegemite to the knife. Spread the butter and the Vegemite acts as lube for the butter.

Or try this food-hacks.wonderhowto.com/how-to/spread-cold-hard-butter-without-ripping-your-toast-shreds-0151468/

Or this

Does anyone else put the Vegemite on toast before the butter? It allows the butter to melt but not soak in, molten butter and still crispy toast. Mmmmmm delicious.
