Lidl, that’s where!

If you love butter, this is too, too yummy 😋

Saw this yesterday, and resisted it! Too much salt...wish I had bought it as I keep thinking about it:raofl::raofl:
 
It is good value, the price of butter wholesale has gone through the roof ...From £2000 a tonne perhaps 18 months ago and recently closer to £8000 per tonne hence the significant increase in biscuit prices too

I wondered about that. Had noticed the price of the cheap butter I usually get (unsalted, buy whatever offerings from the supermarkets) shoot through the roof last couple years. Used to be £1 or if you were lucky a bit cheaper, but now cheapest is £1.45.

Must try that Lidl butter, Hen, thanks for tip. It's on the shopping list.

Love nice butter and I don't eat margarine or any of the other buttery/sunflower/olive spreads. Well, I will eat them, but only if eating someone else's grub and they've used it.

Wouldn't care but I called in at Lidl last week on way home from work, but got distracted by the chocolate almond ices in the freezer section :)

You traitor, Eddy! :lol-053: :wave:

Actually, no, good move! Newkie brown is vile. bleugh!

My very first job was at Newcastle Breweries in Bath Lane.
Staff perk was 24 dozen bottles or cans of whatever they traded per annum. Or a beer keg.
Trouble was I didn't drink so used to give it all away :scared:

Just go out and work a bit harder after you've eaten it :)

I couldn't live without butter. Or certain other foods.

Food is one of life's great and simple pleasures. Best of all we have to eat to stay alive. Yay! :)

Unless you have a serious medical condition or a food allergy that prevents you eating things you like, I say get stuck in :)

My reasoning - and I won't be swayed - I'm more likely to be killed in a road accident.
And if I was run over, just think! .....

By refusing that cream cake the day before because it was 'bad for me'
I'd be dead and not had the great pleasure of eating it :scared: Now that would be a tragedy :)

Oh no! :(

Maybe the price has gone up since last week? Wouldn't be at all surprised :(

Just wait til we're fully brexited next year, I'm betting there'll be a few more pips squeaking by then ;)
 
i eat a small pack of butter in a restaurant if i buy a meal with a roll. So i do get to taste it occasionally - but its never gonna be this lovely crunchy salty stuff is it? There are huge misconceptions about how much exercise will get rid of over indulgence of food. The amount of exercise to get rid of the 1800 calories in a block of butter(when there are much less calorific alternative - and no i dont eat "spreads or margarine either") is just not worth the taste !!!

Got to be regional differences then. I bought unsalted from both Asda & Aldi in the last 2 weeks at £1.45.

Surely the regional pricing differences for the same chains can't be that great?? :confused:
If they are we're being ripped off again by the corporates. 'Tis just what life is these days, I guess :(
 
Morrison's sell a Brittany butter with sea salt too, very nice
 
Dont bother with butter or much of marg except on toast as it tastes like axle grease to me.
