in a few years they'll be investigating supermarkets on block butter price fixing.....mark my words :mad:

Do check the salt content in your butter. I have found that the cheaper-priced butters nearly always have a much higher salt content...........

I've noticed at most supermarkets Willow is cheaper than smart price/own brand ones.

That's because Willow is not butter, it's a "traditionally churned spread". Or to be exact, it's

Vegetable Oils,Buttermilk (29%) ,Water ,Skimmed Milk ,Cream ,Salt (1.7%) ,Emulsifiers (E471, Soya Lecithin) ,Flavourings ,Vitamins (E, A & D) ,Colour (E160a)

Have to say that the vegetable oil listed as the first ingredient has always put me off Yuk!

Just had a look online in prep for the weekly shop and the Anchor is now £2.00 for the 500g block - £1.00 for the 250g. Must be that the 'Rollback' has been rolled umm....back again :rotfl:
