Japan Solves An Age-Old Butter Dilemma With One Simple Twist

Just reading this makes me "feel delicious" smileys/smile.gif I've always grated my butter!

 
"Try as you might to spread butter on your toast, the knife inexplicably pierces the bread..."

"...sending it flying aross the house where it knocks your laundry soap into the dryer, exposes your breasts and makes your taco fall apart (which makes you more frustrated than you've ever been, ever)."

This is the reason I gave up toast. I get very upset when my taco falls apart and exposes my breasts.

 
I cannot stand that either... plus...

... it makes guests feel very uncomfortable. With the breasts situation, you know....

so, no toast for me. Until I buy the thingie that makes me feel very delicious.

 
The translation issue is humorous for butter but

not so much when you are trying to understand the directions for some piece of electronic technology.

 
If I need it immediately, I grate it. If I can wait an hour, I float it (wrapped) in room temp water

 
I always thought those to be pretty, but I just use mom's butter dish and I'm still alive.

Back when we had the old fridge (gawd I loved that thing) we kept butter in the fridge because the butter compartment had a warming tray.

Now, I still use mom's glass butter dish, but leave it on the counter. Of course the weather here is mild, so maybe that's it, but I've been doing this for decades without an issue.

(Seeing that photo made me sad we can't get the long sticks of butter that fit my butter dish anymore.)
