[a fool in paradise]

No. Next question.

This opening sounds like an entry in the Bulwer-Lytton Bad Writing Contest.

It's about time we start to argue about who makes the *best* [commercial] butter

Kate's from Maine is very good; for baking, daily use, I prefer. Cabot's Vermont butter.

[Sacajaweau]

No....but one of these days, I’m gonna try Kerrygold.

[txnativegop]

is there a difference in the cows or something? Sorry I could not resist. LOL

[Daffynition]

You win a pound of homemade butter! LOL

[glorgau]

If you’re really into butter and have the scratch, why not?

Myself, I made some ghee and just used some on my mashed potatoes. Yumm.

Happy New Year!

I used to love butter and baked exclusively with it, fried in it, buttered toast, put on hot veggies. Discovered I was allergic to all dairy 9 years ago. No more butter for me! I was a true butter lover. Was the best in baked goods.

$50 a pound.....nice work if she can get it, and seems she can, and treats her cows well.

But for me, regular butter was great.

I’m still irritated with gun powder above $20’s a pound. Oh and beer above $2’s a six pack. No way I’m putting that stuff on my popcorn at the rate the Dems require I watch and eat it. No.

My thought too. Just get to the point. As far as the butter is concerned, it depends. If any rich snob in a blind taste test can taste the difference, then yes. In the meantime, why pay fifty dollars a pound for butter? Excellent butter is produced all over the world. But I guess we really need the freedom to pay what we want, even for a snob.

“No. Next question.”

Why not?

[a fool in paradise]

Personal taste.

Are you going to put it on a $125 loaf of bread?

A $200/lb NY Strip?

The real question is if you whip up a batch of "boutique" butter, market it to an exclusive clientele with disposable income, and charge $50 a pound for it, will these people buy it?

Yes, they will.

[Captain Peter Blood]

Yes

[DIRTYSECRET]

If it’s that good I’ll try it once.

[NonValueAdded]

These must be the contented cows you were looking for.

[TexasGator]

My mouth is watering! Just add a good bottle of wine!
