those fancy-looking butters from particular places tha sort of come in a roll or whatever, are they good?

Yes. But I couldn’t swear they’re any better than the old Country Life.

well that’s the big question, really. I want to taste the fresh air and lush verdant fields of those locations.

Some say you will NEVER put a better bit of butter on your knife.

User to steal butter from my nan’s house and wrap it little foil packets and just lick it out in secret at home. 28 years old.

Yes! You can really taste the difference imo and the feel of them to work with when making pastries is much better than standard blocks

My mum would often have buttered digestive biscuits for lunch. Think it put me off it for years.

A fan now, big time. Cooking steaks in it is a game changer.

Big fan of the Tesco finest butter - it’s only about 35p more than the regular stuff and is just perfect.

Love a bit of butter on my Saturday toast

The King asked
The Queen, and
The Queen asked
The Dairymaid:
“Could we have some butter for
The Royal slice of bread?”
The Queen asked the Dairymaid,
The Dairymaid
Said, “Certainly,
I’ll go and tell the cow
Now
Before she goes to bed.”

The Dairymaid
She curtsied,
And went and told
The Alderney:
“Don’t forget the butter for
The Royal slice of bread.”
The Alderney
Said sleepily:
“You’d better tell
His Majesty
That many people nowadays
Like marmalade
Instead.”

The Dairymaid
Said, “Fancy!”
And went to
Her Majesty.
She curtsied to the Queen, and
She turned a little red:
“Excuse me,
Your Majesty,
For taking of
The liberty,
But marmalade is tasty, if
It’s very
Thickly
Spread.”

The Queen said
“Oh!:
And went to
His Majesty:
”Talking of the butter for
The royal slice of bread,
Many people
Think that
Marmalade
Is nicer.
Would you like to try a little
Marmalade
Instead?”

The King said,
“Bother!”
And then he said,
“Oh, deary me!”
The King sobbed, “Oh, deary me!”
And went back to bed.
“Nobody,”
He whimpered,
“Could call me
A fussy man;
I only want
A little bit
Of butter for
My bread!”

The Queen said,
“There, there!”
And went to
The Dairymaid.
The Dairymaid
Said, “There, there!”
And went to the shed.
The cow said,
“There, there!
I didn’t really
Mean it;
Here’s milk for his porringer,
And butter for his bread.”

The Queen took
The butter
And brought it to
His Majesty;
The King said,
“Butter, eh?”
And bounced out of bed.
“Nobody,” he said,
As he kissed her
Tenderly,
“Nobody,” he said,
As he slid down the banisters,
“Nobody,
My darling,
Could call me
A fussy man -
BUT
I do like a little bit of butter to my bread!”

are there not a few extra lines at the end of this poem

Not in the version I have, I don’t think. Maybe there’s an extended version?

“This is a classic example of English farmhouse butter made from the leftover whey produced in making Keen’s Cheddar. The distinctive savoury and yoghurty flavours of this cultured butter make it a joy to eat as is, melting into a slice of toast, or layered with a morsel of sharp cheddar.”
