Will that spread straight from the fridge mollie?

Crystalline22 · 24-12-2010, 21:18

Lurpack or Country Life spreadable

earthling13 · 24-12-2010, 21:24

Butter only and unsalted. Usually Tescos but ALDIs is OK. Unsalted seems so much creamier that I really don't like salted at all.

queenshaks · 24-12-2010, 22:00

Anchor spreadable

Same for us too molliepops!

I think it tastes more like butter than butter does these days....

Sakura-Chan · 24-12-2010, 22:10

Lurpak for butter, Flora Buttery for margarine

Smokeychan1 · 24-12-2010, 22:18

I'm another for Lurpak unsalted. My late Scottish grandmother only ever used unsalted butter and being much harder to find in England years ago, it was one of the things I used to look forward to most when going up for a visit.

mrsmetropolis · 24-12-2010, 23:46

I really enjoy the taste of Anchor spreadable.

80's chick · 26-12-2010, 14:23

anchor spreadable for sandwiches or blocks of countrylife if i'm doing cakes or mashed potatoes

Sorry missed your question - not ignoring you honest

Yes it spreads straight from the fridge.

malspie · 26-12-2010, 22:56

My favourite butter is anchor
My favourite spread used to be flora light until I discovered I can't believe it's not butter light.

summerain · 26-12-2010, 23:33

Countrylife is my favourite, but I can never justify spending that much on a tub of butter/marg. I usually go for whatever is on special offer.

"fresh" butter my gran called it, and being considered best, it was therefore always fresh butter out on the table for sundays when we came round.

I will swap between fresh ( often President) and salted butter when I fancy a change of taste, or get bored with too much of one. Never buy a spread, or margarine, (unless doing a one-stage sponge, will buy a cooking-marge for that)

parthy · 26-12-2010, 23:45

There's nothing better than salted butter on warm drop scones. *drools*

azzi123 · 27-12-2010, 13:40
