Wh...Nothing we eat these days is truly good for us. When you can keep eggs in the refrigerator for weeks before they expire and they have already set in a warehouse for months, there is something wrong. The same goes for milk, butter and all the other dairy products. <BR/><BR/>When we lived on the farm, eggs would last about 3 days before they went bad. Cream and milk was brought to the house daily in order to prevent them from spoiling. A few days was all the shelf life they had. There are so many chemicals in what we eat today that it doesn't really matter if you eat butter or margarine. I prefer butter, but use margarine because it is so much cheaper.<BR/><BR/>On a lighter note, did you know that at one time margarine was outlawed in Quebec. I'm not sure if that old law has ever been changed. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the comments on today's post. No, I don't have a sore throat, but feel really miserable. I'm glad it only lasts a few days.<BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/>MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08175754179624182953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-81964618961222111422008-12-01T22:13:00.000-05:002008-12-01T22:13:00.000-05:00I'm assuming that's raisin toast? sunmaid Cinnamo...I'm assuming that's raisin toast? sunmaid Cinnamon Swirl?Lornahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08976144449873569523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-57443623907274078772008-12-01T21:32:00.000-05:002008-12-01T21:32:00.000-05:00I like using your margarine/butter as a temperatur...I like using your margarine/butter as a temperature gauge - very tricky! Our butter always has to live in the fridge (except for in the heart of winter!) or it just turns into an oil puddle, but it definitely has to be butter for me!megz_mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04458169960796868479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-71934677030305243862008-12-01T19:37:00.000-05:002008-12-01T19:37:00.000-05:00A couple of butter thoughts--first, if your house ...A couple of butter thoughts--first, if your house is cold, why not just leave the butter out all night?<BR/>Second, I have read that butter is better for you in the long run.
