I don't like Margarine, and if I am using on toast or bread I always liked to use Butter in the past. I know Butter is really bad for you, and considering how I like my hot toast swimming with Butter, then I can imagine the fat and calorie content. However when I am Baking, most ingredients call for you to use Margarine. When I hear the word Marg, I automatically think of Stork, which was the brand my mum used when Baking all those years ago. Since then we have came on leaps and bounds with the Marg thing, and so many brands out there basically say they aren't Butter, but taste like Butter without being so bad for you. This is where this brand came it! I was ...  Read the complete review

Tesco 'Butter Me Up' is similar to that of Utterly Butterly and I Can't Believe Its Not Butter in that its more of a margarine that tastes like butter. TASTE: Considering it is a cheaper version I dont feel Tescos have compromised on the quality of the product on offer. It tastes as good as the branded versions listed above at a smaller cost. It still has a real 'melt in the mouth' rich buttery taste and quite a thick yet spreadable texture to it.

Background: I have never really had any preference when it comes to buying butter. Usually I look round the shelves and pick the one I think I will get best value for money or and this happens more often the one on special offer or buy one get one free. As a result of this I have no loyalty to any brand or type. Price: This is the first time I had bought Butter me up, it was a BOGOF this week so that meant instead of getting one 500g tub for a £1 I got two instead. This price was paid at my local Supermarket Tesco and is subject to fluctuations in Diary prices. The Product: I found this product very easy to notice ...  Read the complete review

Tesco Butter Me Up is available in two sizes. A 500g tub will set you back £1.05, or a 1kg tub will set you back £1.80 (currently reduced from £1.98). To be honest, I don't think it's the kind of value for money that I usually expect from Tesco. Normally, they're brand name takes on popular products are noticeably cheaper, but in this instance that's not really the case. You can buy a 500g tub of I Can't Believe It's Not Butter £1.15, and a 1kg tub for £2. So yes you are saving a few pence by buying this marginally cheaper store's own version, but is it really worth it? The first thing I notice about this stuff is that it's really quite easy to ...  Read the complete review

The other night I was in Tesco and remembered I needed some spread. I love sandwiches and toast and the likes and the thought of having no butter or spread of some type in makes me shiver....dried bread...yuk! I picked up a tub of this and it cost me £1.00 which I thought wasn't bad value for something called Butter Me Up and hoped it had a buttery taste without all the dreaded fat content! The Packaging: This comes in a yellow plastic tub an on the top of it and on the sides of it we are told what it is and who it is by and other information such as an at a glance nutritional chart is given, the best before date is clearly displayed, we ...  Read the complete review
