Better Butter
Saturday, the traditional day of amateur football throughout our great island. Come lunchtime tomorrow it's down to King's Park for a kickabout with all the local uni students.
However, i need to decide what spread to put in my pre-game sarnies.
I've altered fillings to no avail. I'm convinced it's the St Ivel Gold that has got to go.
But the question is, with what shall i lavish the contents of my lunchbox?

Re: Better Butter
Don't use Lurpak. Lurpak is essentially a block of salted Danish ice designed by Satan to pass as a a type of spread.
Avoid.

Re: Better Butter
I find that as long as sandwiches are made within 3-4 hours of you eating them, butter really isn't necessary, and generally ends up just making the filling (if it's ham or chicken, say- if it's something mayonaisse based then there is no need at all for butter!) greasy.
I use anchor spreadable when I have just bread and butter, or when I have toast.

Re: Better Butter
I've decided to push the boat out as it were.
I've gone for some Tesco Finest Cornish Butter.
It'll take me a hundredth of the time to eat it as it did to spread it, but here's hoping.

Re: Better Butter
[2] Isn't that basically marmite which induces puke?
[3] Never heard of those, gone for good ol' fashioned, 85% toxic preservatives Kingsmill.

Re: Better Butter
Heh. The only sandwich worth having contains ham, cheese, lettuce, cucumber and possibly tomatoes and a little pickle. No butter. Or condoms, for that matter.

Re: Better Butter
You still haven't stated whether you are against, or in favour of the use of lube in sandwiches or not.

No, but I do eat Shredded Wheat Bitesize out of the box.
As for a lube sandwich, I can't say I've ever tried one. I have a very closed mind, you see.

Re: Better Butter
The butter prevents the bread from being too dry, and using any spread other than real butter is sacralidge.
And yes, Vegemite ...the non pussy version of marmite (though we invented it first).

Re: Better Butter
Try that "I cant Believe its not Butter, no, seriously, its not butter but its made with Buttermilk so it pretty much tastes the same but it spreads, which is odd because Butter doesnt spread, so really this is just a bollocks ad campaign" stuff.
Or Flora.

I like the own brands of "I can't believe it's not butter"
One is "You'd butter believe it"
but the classiest one has to be Netto's "What? not butter?"
heh, so imaginative.
I really couldn't care less what margerine to put on sandwiches. Has to be Margerine not butter though*.
I've got co-op own brand stuff at the moment and it's perfectly fine. Spreads easily, tastes good and it's cheap. Think I actually prefer it to the Flora light my housemate buys and i steal.
*EDIT oh and not lube or condoms or anything else completely insane either
