I personally don’t like butter! Never eat popcorn, so no butter, don’t eat baking, don’t eat sweets.
When it comes to sandwiches I use mustard ketchup or steak sauce as my butter. Only time I will use butter is on potatoes, or grilled cheese.

We buy Lactantia salted butter. Must be a difference from Europe as Lactantia offers a 'European Style' salted butter as well. Have also used Great Value/Walmart and Compliments/Safeway brands in pinch, although Great Value is better of two. Butter is cheap if you stock up when on sale. Easiest product to keep in freezer. Safeway had Lactantia salted butter on sale couple weeks ago for holiday season at 2.97/lb. Stocked up on about 20 lbs. Unsalted can be tasteless shit. Everyone in our family eats butter year round, haven't eaten 'cancer in a tub' margerine in about 15 years. You would think we should all be dead, but cholesterol levels are actually quite good. Maybe just good genetics.

And I've eaten nothing but "cancer in a tub" for 45 years, and yet here I am. You are an idiot, nothing at all wrong with either. I prefer margarine as the canola used in it could be the canola I grow.

Most professional bakers use unsalted butter so they can control the amount of salt. Different brands of salted butter have differing levels of salt inclusion. This might explain what you experience with different tastes with butter.

Yes that's correct that's why I add what amount I like after.

We don’t care for margarine-at all, but I made the mistake of buying 12 pounds from biggest chain store in town and it is totally not butter, as I know it. Back it is going!
