Am I the only one to find butter disgusting? It's just a blob of fat.
Now what really blows my mind is to learn that for some people, more fat is better.
I haven't tasted butter since I was a kid, some 25+ years ago. Maybe now I would find the _flavor_ delicious (doubt it) but so what? There's many things which might be delicious that I don't to put in my body.
EDIT: I'm European living in the USA - seems relevant to this thread.
- nostrebored 3y agoWhy would less fat be better? Fatty foods have been high in demand for basically all of human history.
- 226_ebro_treaty 3y agoI find the thought of eating fish and seafood abhorrent, as I do not respect them. However, I don't deny that some people find them tasty. Try some butter on toast if it's been that long! I'm sure you'll enjoy it to some degree :-)
- klyrs 3y ago> It's just a blob of fat. Once, in Italy, my family was served a straight up chunk of lamb fat. My dad took one for the team and gulped it. I was grateful at the time, but later in life I discovered pork shoulder, with its drippy cracklin... and now I wish I could go back to that little albergo and try their lamb fat.

- drivebycomment 3y agoIf you have been to restaurants during that 25 years, you almost certainly ate food cooked with butter, thus tasted butter.
