I use a stick of butter like a crayon. It's efficient, neat, doesn't dirty a knife and you can get an even spread with minimal butter. People don't like this, why? My sister says it's because the butter gets crumbs on it.
It's your butter, why not? besides, nobody touched the toast, so even if it's not yor butter, the crumbs are hygienically ok. i use either a lot of butter, or none. there is no happy medium, i LOVE butter. especially with potatoes and salt. is there anything more satisfying in the world than a good baked potato with a pound of butter and half a pound of salt?
Dag - that's a rhetorical Q, right?
Husker - what's so funny?
Doesn't dirty the knife, but don't you get crumbs all up on yo' butta?
I never make toast. But I do use sticks of butter as a crayon often.
I like to draw sunshines on myself. That's not weird, though.
and then bread-crumb them and run around naked.... yeah yeah we know.... <grin>
Why do you need toast? Just eat the sticks of butter like candy bars. You ever see a fat butterfly?
I use Brommel & Brown. Comes in a tub. Made with, like, yogurt and stuff. Actually like it better than stick butter 'cuz the texture is closer to whipped butter. Mmmmm.
I actually don't like butter enough to eat it by the stick.
Little K, that was SO last week.
Pdog - I was SO excited about the B&B stuff, but then it had to go and have hydrogenated oils in it.
slappy - so hard to keep up....
mmmm. no comment. or is it socially acceptable to eat butter by the stick?
er....
hey Dag, you don't mind the bread crumbs in the butter, right?
I'm confused about that one too, Dag. OK, so eating butter by the stick was, like, fashionable last week? Is this some sort of "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" deal?
Depends on how old you are. I did that as a kid, and it was all right, I think. (I also ate whole raw potatoes, though, so I'm probably not your best measuring stick -- so to speak.)
I ate butter as a kid - kids need cholesterol to grow right.
Man, you women are fast.
(k' - is that why I'm right handed?)
fast women
Soz, I'm still cracking up about the Fast Times reference.
