.......which is why it's a no brainer to pay the extra 20p and get Pure 100% Lurpak at Tesco

Nothing beats Lurrrrpak but President comes close?

Kerrygold Softer Butter (NOT Kerrygold Spreadable) will spread straight from the fridge, and is 100% pure butter.

More to the point why waste your money on more expensive brands if you're content with a cheaper alternative?

99p for 500g Lurpak at Tesco, I don't think so :stuck_out_tongue:

Spreadable?

Worth telling people about this.

The downside is that its only about 50% butter

Do they have the "unsalted" version od Danepak in Lidl?

I think most people are aware by now that this is how it is made spreadable - and why it is cheaper than ordinary butter. You can make your own by whizzing half butter and half rapeseed oil in your food processor - haven't tried it myself but have read a number of articles where it is suggested. Mind you, it's not worth the bother when you can buy it this cheaply.

Regardless, I don't think such products should be permitted to use the word "butter".

I cut off the butter I need and pop it in the microwave. You soon get the hang of the timing. :smile:

Yes, 29% Butter- (not 20% vegetable fat and 9% butter). The fat used is butter, only butter. That is what by meant by the term "All Butter".

I thought it was like soft scoop ice cream and whipped up with air

Butter content (64%) in lurpak spreadable

so a bargain the LIDL version at this price as far as I'm concerned.

They aren't. The product is labelled rather anonymously as 'Spreadable'

I do freeze it...

I have never had a problem freezing Lurpak spreadable. Once defrosted, I have noticed no difference in taste or texture.

Thanks OP Does anyone remeber the EU butter mountain, they had massive freezers full of the bloomin stuff, of course you can freeze it, just make sure its well wrapped as it can pick up the smells of other foods.

Don't waste your cash. Lurpak and President are far better than these poor knock off attempts.

Interesting butter talk :man:

I usually buy the Lurpak spreadable but tried this out of interest. It's pretty tasteless compared to the Lurpak in my opinion. I wouldn't bother.

Butter freezes with no problems - I've been doing it for years.

voted hot.
eek.. how can they even make this product at such low cost? I assume the cost price would be around 10p-20p , rest involving transportation/storage etc..

Buy double cream when it's reduced to pence in supermarket. whiz it down in mixer/food processor & freeze the butter produced.

This butter used to be good, but they changed the supplier (used to be made by kerrygold) and ingredients. Now it is full of palm oil and not much butter, and tastes terrible. Aldi one is much better as it contains 64% butter.

ive learnt so much reading this!
all my life -now in late 40s- ive just put whatever spread was in the fridge on bread, couple of slices of ham and that's lunch box sorted. ive never been ill so far, have low cholesterol, maybe I'm just lucky or maybe ive got better things to do then worry about the butter content in a spread!!!!

Thanks will give this a try!

Tried the Danpak twice because I like buying quality cheaper products but I find this not comparable at all. To me it tasted very cheap and nothing like lurpak.

My mother taught me, always use quality tomatos and butter in food/recipes

This stuff may be cheap, but can't hold a candle to Anchor Spreadable. Much less butter content than all the main players. It is cheap at this price though.

Heat added, good fine.

Looked at this yesterday, 37% butter content

People talking percentages and I'm just here spreading it on my toast and deciding if it's tasty or not.

Looked at this yesterday, 37% butter content

i freeze lurpak spreadable so does my mam n auntie , its fine

Norpak in Aldi is every bit as good as Lurpak (same proportion of ingredients too). Other 'Lurpak clones' are inferior.

'REAL' butter is 98%!
64% includes 36% of crap!
Buy Devon or Cornish (available even in Aldi at just over a quid Trewethen is 92%). NO contest!

PLUS it tastes lovely and you'll be supporting BRITISH farming. :innocent:
Spreadables are using the 'word' butter now because their sales are edging down a bit. But fools will always buy crap because they believe the crap they are told and sold.
It's so simple. Look at the contents on a butter pack and then on a spreadable or other crap like Flora etc. The list of ingredients is as long as your arm. And you are putting that inside your body, ffs!
On top of that, spreads are far from healthy. Wake up! Butter is, and always has, been good for you.

Wah? You've launched into a full on rant about spreadables. When all I was doing was comparing the butter content of Lurpak to Danpak to the price paid.

Lidl offer is for 500g.-Tesco offer is £3,25 for 250Gg or 1Kg. for £5. not a great offer I would think!!

This stuff isn't even spreadable. The Aldi one is good.

Went to Rotherham branch yesterday morning. None in. Fridge full of Lurpak instead so must have all gone by Saturday :disappointed:
