I keep my butter in the ___________.
Over T-Giving, the BF's 'rents were here, along with his sister and brother. I did T-Giving soup to nuts. On the first day of their stay, BF's mom took a stick of butter and placed it on a plate. She then proceeded to leave the plate on the counter where it lived for the entire six days they were here!
I couldn't help but think, WTF? Butter is a dairy product. Hear that? D-a-i-r-y. This implies it needs to be kept cold to be fresh. The stick of butter wasn't in one of those fancy French bells with the airtight water gizmo, it was on a plate...out in the world!
Needless to say, I was totally freaked and could NOT wait to toss the bit that was left right in the garbage.
So is this a common practice?? Leaving butter at room temp? (PS - I really do love his family.)
