I was just standing at my counter, making pancakes, and it occurred to me: butter should be kept in the fridge or at least sealed up tightly in some sort of insulated container, because otherwise, you will get ants in your butter. Counter butter appears watery, as the heat causes the fats to separate from the water and protein in the butter. @fjord_monkey@hilariouschaos.com you post quality Scandinavian content and that offends me. You probably leave your butter OUT.
