Re: Pass the Butter Please!
Most of our non butter spreads here are immulsifed canola oil which is a type of Rapeseed developed in Canada. Reports lately are not favourable. Unlike Denmark, Australia does not ban trans fat and in the small print on the packets it is .http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canola

Not a joke Richard but i know a guy who uses some of the so call;ed 'table spreads' to grease rusted nuts, apparently if you leave the spread on over night it is better than WD 40 for moving them.

I used to put Vaseline on our bedroom door handle to stop the kids coming in when making love.

Problem with that is then removing the folicles after having eaten.
