Lurpak Slightly Salted Spreadable

As I had run out of butter quite recently, I nipped to my local grocery store to see what was available. The store only had three types of butter so choice was limited. I ended up buying the Lurpack Spreadable which is in a 250g tub and cost around £1.20. I think this is quite significantly more expensive than what I would have paid in a larger store or supermarket but as I needed something to spread on my toast, I opted to buy anything really and this is the variety that appealed to me the most. The packaging is a plastic tub and lid which can be replaced after each use and so forms an almost-airtight seal. The silver background colour to the tub - as ...  Read the complete review

For me there is only one choice when it comes to butter and that is Lurpak Slightly Salted! The king of all butters. When it comes to things like Toast, Jacket Potatoes and Mashed Potato you need a good quality of butter to smoother them with and for me, Lurpak works a treat with its rich but not OTT buttery taste and the slightly salted taste really brings out the flavours. At the moment you can buy a 250g tub for £1.24 on Tesco.com and this is a little expensive as you can buy a 500g tub of Clover for only 20p more and a 500g tub of Utterly Butterly for £1.29. The 500g tub of Lurpak is £2.40! For a treat I think that it is worth every penny, but ...  Read the complete review

Nowadays, there are too many of these immitation butters knocking around out there, 'Utterly Butterly' and 'I Can't Believe It's Not Butter' are ok for sandwiches, but when you need that creamy, buttery taste; you gotta' get Lurpack! Lurpack is Danish, and we all know Danish butter is renowned for being extremely creamy and having a great taste. Lurpack is no different, and despite being 50% vegetable oil; it retains a beautiful, creamy flavour that goes great on top of a nice slice of white toast. The word spereadable can be somewhat decieving, straight out of the fridge onto a cold slice of bread, the stuff will not spread. There have been time ...  Read the complete review

Lurpak is a well known Danish butter which has been marketed for over 100 years. The symbol on the butter is entwined "lurs" which are bronze age musical instruments, this symbol was created in 1901 to show it was quality Danish butter. Lurpak butter is regularly tested to ensure the high quality that they have kept for the last century. I have used spreads for many years for a few reasons, mainly that it spreads easily, has less calories and is cheaper, but I realised I have been sacrificing taste and have been on a mission to find something I like in the butter line. I tried the healthy option of Lurpak but wasn't impressed with the taste so when ...  Read the complete review

Sometimes I think that the simple foods are the best, take for example, one of my favourite snacks... toast - it can be quite delicious if you have the right ingredients. Select a nice fresh piece of white bread, slide it into the toaster, and once it pops out, layer on some butter and watch it slowly melt into the warm bread... fantastic... or at least most of the time it is. However, If your butter, margarine, or whatever spread you use isn't quite up to scratch, you can end up a little disappointed. Now, i've tried a fair few 'mock-butter' spreads over the years and been a little unimpressed - 'Utterly Butterly', (which still tastes like margarine), and 'I ...  Read the complete review
