Unless it is melted in mashed potatoes butter doesn’t set my heart on fire.
BUT a post from my friend Charlie yesterday was a reminder that butter is getting a lot of good press.
For years it was demonized as the blocker of arteries and the cause of many problems.
Today it would seem new studies show its virtues and that those who eat plenty of it are at no higher risk than those who don’t.
While focus on a single dietary item is not recommended this underlines the truth that everything in moderatiin is fine.
Still, even after more than thirty years working in the food industry the moderation message always seems so staid and boring to me.
Oscar put it so well when he said
BUT look what happened to our poor dear Oscar!
Thoughts?

My Mom’s favorite saying : “everything in moderation”
Next favorite was” everything is better with butter” I grew up on a dairy farm!

Maybe Butter got the Better of Oscar ‘Wild’e–Krishna. How old was he when his arteries called him in?

Oscar was 46 when he went to the poets corner in the sky. I fear it was the ETOH rather than butter that took him though 🥂
