OT: 87th Obsequious Banter Thread: Don't be Brash

[Beef Invictus]

You are obviously overly sensitive and overreacting to the situation. Nobody is saying butter is bad. Only that, like all things in life, there is a time and a place. Butter on toast? Fine. On pancakes and waffles? Better than fine. Sometimes when I make spaghetti, and sauce from a jar is too much work, I’ll just melt butter in the noodles, dump in some parmesan cheese and some broccoli (steamed of course) and voila.

But corn on the cob?

When I was a kid I used to put butter and salt on my corn on the cob.

But when I became a man I put away childish things. Except Fruit Loops. I still like those.

Being a man doesn't mean you have to make things taste worse on purpose

Which is why I no longer put butter on corn.

You're wrong

my wife says you’re nuts

It’s not a matter of right vs wrong. It’s a matter of being enlightened (me) and being unenlightened (you). Like I said, I was once where you are now. But I’ve grown.

Edit: And as Whitey always used to tell us, Tastykakes are made with “milk, butter, and eggs”. And TKs rock. So yes, up with butter. Just not on corn.

I've gotta dark secret to confess.

Unless I'm at a diner and it comes on them already, I don't put butter on my waffles or pancakes. It's nothing to do with not liking butter, but just a subconscious 'health' thing. Maple syrup does all you need for those items, even if butter does kick it up a notch.

I'm the same with waffles and pancakes. The syrup brings enough to the table. Rarely will I use butter. I have no metabolism to speak of so little decisions like that add up.

I am 50/50 on putting butter on french toast. A pad of butter is fine on each stack. Not much of a pancake guy.

Yeah, I definitely respect the element that butter brings, and it definitely.improves it, but pancakes are just fine with maple syrup only. Generally, they don't last long enough to warrant the additional condiments, anyway.

100% Even at home I don't always put butter on them. Just depends on the mood.

You anti butter folks are just continually making fools out of yourselves. Go back to sleep.

Nice grass fed butter is actually good for you as long as you don't eat sticks at a time. Healthiness is not a valid excuse.

That's fair and all, but it's also extra work to spread. I'm done my pancakes before you even finish spreading butter. Take any longer, and I'm eating your stack, too.

 

[Beef Invictus]

Don't spread the butter. Just leave a slice in the middle between every pancake. It's like a nice dessert later after you've eaten everything but the buttery center.

 

[DancingPanther]

I prefer to call them flapjacks

Why dont you go to the roster thread and have a multi-paragraph rant about it

Just made a killer breakfast sandwich on a bagel. Didn't butter the bagel before placing the goods on said bagel

anti butter people? No there are just some people who like butter on somethings and not others.
Example, i love asparagus on the grill. A little garlic salt, butter and wrap it up in tinfoil. Absolutely delicious

Lochs and cream cheese (Philadelphia brand of course) on a bagel? Awesome. Lochs and butter? NOPE.

Rolls.

Hand-stiched headliner and interior trim. Designed to your specifications of course, so if you prefer winged cherubs or a reproduction of the Sistine Chapel ceiling they'll probably accomodate you.

Needs a butter fridge in the dash

 

[Magua]

I never put butter on anything. Actually nothing. I will have it baked or cooked into things, etc. As long as it’s not ridiculously rich. But never on top. I’m not a dairy person in general. Have a revulsion to cheese too. Blame brain chemistry.

 

[Jack Straw]

No, front seating is for the chauffeur. Fridge is in the back, as is the wine rack.
