I can't believe it's so good....for everything

Well, I mean, make it all stick together in one lump!

How can you add water to butter?

I'll stick to butter. Love it!

What makes spreads spreadable is the addition of water. Why pay for water. Lurpack unsalted for me.

You cant beat real butter, I love lurpak..As for my dog,she would eat anything that she sees me eat,but I am strict with what I let her have just the odd lick of ice cream etc. She does enjoy her dog food so has a good life.

And the spaniel would roll in cow pats

I miss them both!

Jalima our terrier would do this too. As well as eating cow pats, horses and foxes poo. Utterly disgusting but I miss him so much.

I too will try President, we have Country Life and my DH is a Clover lover.

Tried the flat foot remedy rosesarered and now DH is very very cross because I have got grease on the new carpet.

and my feet are still flat.

I will only have real butter, and what's more it's French and contains salt crystals!Mmm - delicious and totally natural. Cherrytree59 are you from Northamptonshire - I don't know anywhere else where they say DUG for dog!

Don't read this post if you tend towards queasiness

Cherrytree our terrier would sometimes be sick then 'tidy it up again' if I didn't stop him.

I don't remember him liking butter or 'not butter'; he did like swede and carrot though.

Any good for making me look younger?

We do use spreadable butter as well as the blocks. Country Life is just butter, salt and rapeseed oil (which we use anyway). But I might give that President spreadable a try.

This is really a TERRIFIC thread. Thank you. Mature humour at its level best. Can't stop grinning. Again......thanks ladies. Wonderful!

Can't eat anything like that. Do like butter and will sometimes have it on bread.

Grey duster...we like President spreadable, which says "no vegetable oils", but still doesn't actually call itself butter. Looking at the ingredients, the spreadability is provided by some added cream, which I suppose is not technically butter....?.

Someone must have decided the word "not" was too negative.

When this came out in the US, we got fed up with the name and in our family shortened it to ICBM's (like the missile) vs a proper acronym of ICBINB. Gave us a chuckle till we discovered Benecol. Much better! For cooking I use unsalted butter.

Look at the ingredients and see how much added oil you are paying for in that elevated price

What do they put in spreadable butter that makes it spreadable?

I have returned to eating pure butter. At least we know what is in it, and it tastes much better.

Would the 'I can't believe....' stuff help my dog to walk again? If so, I'll bulk buy!

How about: I Can't Believe People Will Buy Any of It?

I read once that margarine is a few molecules away from plastic, that it never goes off, and flies don't bother with it. A man on the radio said that his father was an industrial chemist, and had told him NEVER to eat margarine. That sent me scuttling back to the Lurpak unsalted, where I have remained ever since. Given that information, I wonder if 'I can't believe it's not plastic' might be a better name change.

Reminds me of the Alice character in Vicar of Dibley......."I can't believe it's not 'I Can't Believe It's Not Butter". I can't believe that they think a corny name change will boost sales. ?

I was wondering what this thread was about - vinegar, coconut oil.... Ah no, it's margarine, the latest miracle product

Does anyone actually like this stuff? My sister used to insist she hated butter back in the day and would only eat the old block marge. There was a great Geordie word that described it perfectly - claggy.
