Butter Vs Margarine

[Guest Frank]

I thought butter was better then marge?

The only reason butter does not go off, is because it has a high salt content

Its pure other then that.

[Guest Ditch_Shitter]

" High salt content " Well, There's healthy then, Frank! Maybe That's why the medic's started telling us it'd stop our hearts? Ye think I should go and carve that knob into a likeness of the face of Job's wife then? Jesus wept!

 

What ever it is mate, I'm stunned. I mean, look at the photo's. At least the marg' has had the decency to go a bit melted and discoloured. The butter? Well ....!

 

Either way; F*ck putting Either of those two substances in my bloody mouth again. Good smoke and a pint of Guinness does me, mate ~ he wheezed! Raspingly

[Guest JohnGalway]

This is a bit like reading Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy, you spend thirteen months reading the thing and then find out the answer is sodding fortytwo! Or in this case salt

Just found these Healthy snips of Information . Read down to Origins: and read through the text!! seems interesting stuff. I would be in agreement that Buuter will contain far more Animal fats but surley a natural churned Butter will be better for you that some of the Garbage fired into some Marge brands?

 

I'm a butter Junky mainly cause it tastes Good and by rights should come from Cows and not a Lab? Marge on the other hand seems more oil based! depending on what brand you get it can be a Nightmare to spread due to the way it keeps slideing off the knife ...

 

Butter for me Lads everytime

 

Cheers

Give me fresh baked bread or bisquits, still warm from the oven, slathered in butter 'til it's dripping. Might kill me a little sooner than expected, but I'll die happy. And well-fed. Follow it up with the Guinness and smoke just for good measure. :drag:

 

Cut out all the pleasures and you might be alive, but you're not living.

I cant believe this thread is still ongoing and about a bit of shitty auld marg.

 

Jesus Ditch, you certianly know how to kick the arse out of thread and keep it going. Hats off to you for that

But i think enough is enough and its time to wipe the slime off of your window sill and then clean the fecker, i mean its been a whole year

Cmon man, i know you live alone, but REALY, imagine if a beautifull blonde nymphomaniac just happened to drop by expecting you to take her on the kitchen worktop, what possible excuse would you have for the lump of slime dripping off of the sill and sliding down the wall???

I'm sure at the least it would be a niggling distraction....

seen something at a place i do a bit of work,where butter that was reckoned to be a couple of hundred years old was found in good condition buried in peat,see no need to add preservatives or salt just pack it in a bricquette,sorted.

We need Kiwi to shed some light on this conumdrum.

 

 

All due respect to Kiwi, who seems like a good bloke ..... but he does appear to rely on the public perception of butter for his living. There's also the niggling variable that he has an inherrant bias towards the Anchor product. ('Mind you; When I was a nipper, Anchor was the only butter ye'd ever see in our house! So I've equelly got nothing against that product)

 

Quite frankly, I just bought the KerryGold because it's 100% Irish and cost a few cents more than less well known brand names from smaller creameries. Thus I wanted to maintane 'transparency' without casting that shadow of a doubt by the use of something like 'ErinsDelight ~ from the Unheard of Little Creamery, Somewhere in an Irish Town No Bugger But Those Living There Has Ever F*cking Heard Of'. I mean, surely KerryGold is at least on a par with Anchor, for 'household name' quality? I'll bet Les Dennis could show us that.

 

 

John; They ever republish that book mate, drop them the nod. I'll hand over my full case files from The Leitrim Experiment for royalty free inclusion

 

 

:laugh

thanks for the update ditch, i'll fill you in on a few points you mention.

first off yes i do rely on butter prodution to make my living, and the anchor brand was and is still is in part the flagship that our butter was sold to the old country, the same stuff you ate as a nipper was proberly in fact pure nz butter, the anchor nowadays is more than likely only a brand name made with butter sourced from many countries, we still export butter to the uk but my understanding is that it is added to poor quaility butter from other countries and sold as various brands.

there is a world stortage of dairy products, including butter, so weather you guys get our product or some asian country has no big impact on my paycheck

i can again asure you guys that butter made here in nz comes from grass feed paddock cows with no pollution or suspect genectic grain feed cow clones.....oh and did i mention nz is nuclear free too.

butter is no more than churned milkfat with a little salt added for taste.

milkfat like any fat is a natural preserveative, it keeps for a long time.

i can run you through a simple buttermaking procedure to show you that there is nothing added to the final product if you like..........the salt added to our butter is also made here and the only thing added to it is sunlight in the saltfarm.

the standard of milk used to get the cream required for butter will reflect the final product.

 

a simple rule we go on here is, butter is made by cows, marge is made from chemists.

Fisher; Any thread only continues for as long as it promotes interest and discussion, mate! And, remember, this isn't even 'my' thread! Jasper kicked it off. His comments provoked my interest and ..... well ...

 

Regards nymphomaniacs? One of those would finish me off in short order, mate. And, if I had to go that way? I'd far sooner it was a small one with Dark hair and eyes. In fact ~ warming to the subject! ~ if she also happened to be Japanese? I'd Gladly 'commit suicide' on her!

 

 

But my main point is that niether of these substances Are " Dripping off of the sill and sliding down the wall. "! They're both just pretty much f*cking Sat There!

 

I mentioned this to a pub landlord in town today. As I also said to him; " Remember stale bread, Jim? Time was, sling a bit of bread up there and leave it for a few days; Come back and it'd be dry, hard and could be crushed to dust. Now? It just sits there and goes green with mould! What the f*ck's going on with our FOOD, Jim? "

Eh?! Kiwi; Ye probably never caught this one, man. It was about twenty five years ago - possibly 'before your time? - or, as likely, just not something they showed on NZ news. But the whole talk, 'over here' was of Butter Mountains and Milk Lakes! This all being in referance to the 'fact' that 'we' / the EU (if it even existed in those days?) were simply producing So Much 'Dairy Produce' that there were these vast holding tanks, full to over flowing with the stuff, that no b*stard even knew what to do with! I remember seeing the news footage of rivers of milk being flooded into the drains. Just to get rid of the stuff.

 

Now, granted, that was during the Thatchaaaaaargh! 'Dark Times'. Truth was no more natural to those c***s lips than it is to those of the scum currently running the 'old country' into the ground. But the queues of people so crushed by That regimen that they'd stand in the street for hours, just to recieve their couple of blocks of free butter were most certainly a reallity. I saw them with my own eyes.

 

 

Milkfat like any fat is a natural preserveative, it keeps for a long time.

 

Now That's news to me. I didn't know that. But, viewing ~ with curled lip ~ that knob of 'natural preservative' out on my window frame there. One year on. Solid and unchanging as a rock. I can't help but think to myself; " Ingest That or a rock? "

 

It's a tough one, mate!
