Thought about getting a butter bell once but decided against it...

- Have to wait until the butter is soft to load it.
- They don't hold a whole stick.
- Have to load more often than just putting a stick in a butter dish.
- Have to change the water.
- With a butter dish you can load it when there's a little left and use the oldest butter first but with a bell you would have to scrape out the old butter, load in the new and then put the old butter on top or wait until it's completely empty to load it.

Bleh. A butter dish is better in every way.

Does anyone else remember butterbellanon? He used to post here. His whole thing was he started dating a vegan girl, and wanted tips on hiding butter underneath margarine in a butterbell so he could eat butter without getting caught. The threads of course immediately degenerated into what you would expect, but I'm honestly not sure whether or not it was an articulate troll, or if he was just that pussy-whipped.

It's not bad but I certainly wouldn't call it one of the healthiest.

Plus it has that off taste from the Eucric acid. They might have made it LOW acid but they didn't get rid of all of it.

In case you didn't know, Canola is a man-made cultivar of Rapeseed. the name comes from CANada Oil Low Acid. It's lower in eucric acid than normal rapeseed oil, but it's far from free of it.

These things work fine if you use butter like a French person - both for cooking and at the table for your bread on a daily basis. If you use butter less often than that they're not such a good idea. I had one for a while, and the butter often got moldy in it. Then again I only use butter once or twice a week, so it took a couple weeks to empty the thing, and that was just too long to leave butter sitting out unrefrigerated.

>>6471157
The only reasons to use margarine would be being too poor to afford butter or war rationing.

>>6475216
To be fair Jewish culture operates on tribalism, while most of the developed world is operating on a post tribal perspective. Many of the "rules" an observant Jew follows are designed to set him apart from others. The dietary restrictions alone make it nearly impossible for an observant Jew to do something so basic as eating at the home of a non-Jew. This insularity proved a great way to keep the culture alive in a people who had no homeland for most of their history. But setting yourself apart from others is also a great way to put a target on your back, and Jewish history has shown this as well. When you can't accept basic hospitality people generally don't warm up to you.

>>6477023
This. I don't know whether I'd consider canola oil "healthy", but I do know for something that's supposed to be a neutral oil it both smells and tastes like shit. From what I understand that shit taste is the eucric acid. I go with peanut oil because it smells and tastes great, can handle high heat and still manages to be relatively neutral.

It's hardly any different than salted butter. There isn't enough salt in salted butter to act as a preservative, it's there for flavor.

Butter goes bad because the fat in it oxidizes (aka goes rancid). That process is unchanged for salted vs. unsalted butter.
