    Remember when the EEC as it was, bought our loyalty with cheap butter & anyone remember the huge burgers they gave out for free? We had about 50 of them in the freezer. They were delicious

      It'll be more expensive for us. But the butter there, I'd say it was gorgeous. I'd love to be handed one now. It might be rock hard in this weather, but a few knobs of it into steaming spuds.🧚‍♂️😀

    It’s natural butter! It’s not trans fats like those found in toxic margarine and vegetable oils.

    2:00 "on sale but how to get rid of it" well for such cheap large amount you can bake with it then properly freeze all you bake so.. you save money that way too with lots of Banaba bread or croissants made with the sale butter in the freezer

    I see the high trust society was beginning to fray at the edges even then, with little old ladies "seeing what they could get away with" and having varying amounts of children ... depending on who's asking, like.
