I put a tub of Clover butter in the freezer as I realized I wouldn't be able to use it too soon, as the expiry date is in May.
I read it can be frozen so I resolved to do that.
I was wondering if, once I defrost it and the expiry date has already gone, will it still be ok to use for about a month?
I freezed it when there was over a month left to the expiry date. Thanks in advance, hope I have been clear.

Clover is margarine, not butter. You can freeze butter, but I'm really not sure about marge.

Edit: I've just Googled and it seems freezing marge is fine. It will be fine to use for a month after defrosting.

Thanks.

I know, I am just used to calling it butter as we use it as though it were butter

You use it as though it had flavour and wasn't reconstituted gunk?

It's usable until you leave crumbs from your toast in it and they start to go furry (about 3-4 months for us)

To me they all taste the same , but I never put anything on my bread and so on, so my taste buds don't know the difference ; I very very rarely eat butter or margarine.
My boyfriend doesn't mind Clover, but likes Anchor butter.
