As unpopular as it may be, I use spray butter. To be exact, I use I can’t believe it’s not butter spray. There, I said it. Let the mocking begin.
I don’t think I can be at a dinner with my brother-in-law without him making some comment about my choice of chemical butter. But I don’t care.
Steve jokes that it should come in aerosol form because I use so much. Once again, I don’t care.
I started using spray butter 7 years ago when I was losing my freshman 20 lbs. I didn’t feel like the fat of real butter was worth it. So I made the switch, and never thought about it again.
Does it taste like butter? Absolutely not. And I’m okay with that. In fact, this afternoon, I was eating a piece of toast and much to my dismay was out of spray butter. (Which is a very rare occasion) What is a girl to do? So I resorted back to the old stick o’ butter. I spread a layer over my piece of toast and with great anticipation took a large bite.
Boy, was I disappointed. I didn’t like it. I didn’t like the taste. In fact, I debated whether I finish the toast at all. Of course, my hunger won because I didn’t want to have to make something else!
I have become accustomed to butter spray and I like it. I like the convenience of the spray. I like that i’s fat free. I like that I don’t have to dirty a knife. I like that it’s easy. I like that it doesn’t have to melt on toast. And I realized today, I like the taste much better than the conventional stuff.
There.
The truth is out.
I am no longer a closet butter spray user.
That stuff is nasty, okay not nasty, but really, you like it better than real butter?? And despite popular belief it's not really fat free… sure 1 spritz is less than 1g fat so it says 0 grams, BUT the whole bottle actually contains 90 grams of fat. Still less than butter but a bit deceiving.
Oh, Kara. You poor thing.
What's funny is that I was contemplating doing a post about how much I love butter. Haha.
And when I think of butter spray, I remember the commercials with Fabio. Remember?
"I cohn't beleeve it's not buttah….spray!"
Best invention ever. I love spray butter, especially on waffles so you don't get huge pockets of melted butter. I'm glad someone else enjoys such a wonderful invention.
Ha! I'm so much the opposite! Bring on the real butter!
And I'm only three chapters into the Hunger Games and I'm liking it so far. My friend Jacque just read the second one in 24 hours 🙂
HA! I like that stuff too, I don't think it compares to real butter, which I do love on a warm piece of bread. But the butter spray is so great for vegis and such, Mike even likes it.
I've used the butter spray! Good stuff.
Love it. We always have at least 3 bottles of it in our fridge. We use it for everything!
I use butter spray too. So no mocking here. Love you guys.
