I'm assuming it can but ive never had it happen before..... anyone know what it tastes like?
ive got some in the fridge, new tub just opened it but it has a really almost soour taste to it. The best before date isnt till jan next year. its the same stuff we always get (i cant believe its not butter) as its the only one my son will eat, but it really dont taste nice.

Take it back and complain and get it exchanged, It shouldn't be off, but I once worked in a supermarket and know that some of their frozen and chilled stuff is not kept as it should be 'out back' - gets too warm before it goes back in the fridge or freezer!
I only buy real butter and do know that that can turn rancid - it's a very distinctive taste and smell. Don't buy spreads, but I'm assuming they will be similar too.0 -
it dont smell but just has a sourish taste to it.... to be honest its made me feel quite sickly with it.... and hungry cause i cant have my toast lol0

Take it back, definitely. It does taste sour if it's off and can give you gippy tummy.

Butter can go rancid if it is stored too long, so therefore any products which cobatin buttermilk can go off, take it back and get your money back, make them check the rest of the stock as well.

(It's a vegetable oil spread) Maybe the oil has gone rancid (although butter can go rancid too) "The happiest of people don't necessarily have the
