Bath, yes, people are strange. It just gets to me that they (IL's) are sooo happy to repeat what they have been told rather than thinking for themselves. They are not dumb people, but they just don't think to ever question the status quo.
By the way, i do occasionally drink a coke. But I don't kid myself believing it is healthy. I know it is bad for me, but sometimes I gotta live on the edge I'm not perfect. But I try to do the right thing at least most of the time.

There are also some lovely cultured butters out there. They have cream, salt and "culture" on the ingredient list. They have a slight tang to them. They are probably the closest in taste to traditional butter. In the past, cream was saved after milking the cows. After a few days, when enough cream had accumulated, this slightly fermented cream was used to make butter. These days, we use pasteurised cream to make butter. So this natural souring of the milk does not occur. So a culture can be either added to the cream or the finished butter to mimic this natural process in which the milk sugars turn into lactic acid.
