Marge Blanket,keep or throw?

[Boroseagull]

Marge? Yuk, one step away from plastic.....only use the finest extra virgin olive oil on my bread.

 

[Fitzcarraldo]

I keep it, for some reason I have just presumed that it was there to keep the butter FRESH. Not sure how I came to that conclusion as, thinking about it, towards the end of the tub it does tend to start look rather unappealing. Maybe, having seen the overwhelming consensus on here, I will chuck it at the first oppurtunity and see if it improves my butter eating experience.

 

[CHAPPERS]

CHUCK

However I am gonna stop using it and move back to proper BUTTER.

Fold it up neatly and then use for greasing baking tins.


And then luz it.

Excellent poll.

I've taken the liberty of presuming that spreadable butter blankets are also allowed, as I don't buy marge.

I normally keep mine - force of habit inherited from my mum, who never throws butter foil away in case she needed it for greasing cake tins.

Given that she never bakes cakes either, you've now got me thinking that she must have a stash of about 1000 butter foils somewhere in the house. I'll have a root around next time I go to see the folks and get back to you.

raymondbriggs, like many others, I salute you: "marge blanket". Alan Partridge himself would be proud of this tidy phrase.

 

[Shirty]

Peel it off, lick it clean, and then put it back.

What ?

 

[SULLY COULDNT SHOOT]

Its to prove the marge is fresh and unopened innit.

Bin it..... or you might cut your fingers on the sharp ends.



uh?
