They probably don't like me much - I had £26 in BM over my last 3 shops
Actually, the more I think about it, the more sense it makes, stopping the BM. S will now get to keep the customers they really want, the ones who won't mind their prices.

I only use real butter, because it is additive-free.
Lots of people I've known have used the various spreads, but I've always found the spreads a bit gloopy to use and artificial in taste. Plastic, even.
Lurpak spreadable is about the best of the spreadable varieties, but I found I don't like the oil in it. If you leave it out for an hour on a warm day, you can see pools of oil as it separates.“All shall be well, and all shall be well and all manner of thing shall be well.”0 -

Slice them up with a little bit of lemon/orange juice, chuck in the freezer et voila! Perfect for smoothies or smooshed up like an instant frozen yoghurt

Sorry trulymadly - I didn't look for the butter but it was on our leaflet so assume it should be in all stores. I am never sure which spread to buy as butter has more fat in it but now the 'experts' are saying it is better fat! I just try and spread it really thinly which I can't do with butter. Like to know what other eliters use and their opinions on the fat content of spreads/butter.
Don't get me started :rotfl:
Health wise no idea, for baking on the other hand, depends on what you're making!'I solemnly swear that I am up to no good'0 -
