Which is also a product of Arla Foods, the makers of Lurpak

My dad always insisted on buying Lurpak butter when we were growing up. This was highly unusual as he's not renowned for spending any money on anything (typical Scotsman)

We'll have to give this Lurpak a go....

Can't recall ever having it as I don't eat bread on planes (for some strange reason)......although, have been known to ask for seconds when it comes to CX garlic bread

The CX J bread basket is an amazing thing

So of course I've just purchased some Lurpak to see what the fuss is about. It is just a few cents dearer than Paris Creek biodynamic butter. I'm so gullible. Lucky this isn't a tech or fashion forum.

So have I
Also found some Ballantyne's Danish style unsalted butter that claims to be Australian, though doesn't say where from. Tastes fine.
Also requested some of this wonderful Paris creek to try.

That is all..

I thought it was 48?

I seriously tried counting them earlier and there are at least 64 different varieties of butter/margarine at Woolworths Macarthur in Brisbane. Start to go cross-eyed after a while.

And Lurpak had a really small box at eye level and from memory it was $5.

We all ask for seconds when it comes to their wonderful garlic bread.

We like HarmoniE organic spreadable (product of Denmark).......probably never see it on QF though.

You snobs....

Something about Asians and garlic bread - all of the Asian carriers have it.

Nice stuff but if your heart isn't in the best of shape, the next time you hit the ground you'll be in a coffin.

Butter makes it better......good butter makes it the best!

Good, Better, Best concept.

Its 83% fat, 3079kL (749kcal) per 100g so divide that by 10 for a 10g catering portion.

Well I think that there is a Lurpak sales rep amongst us who has weaved their magic and will see all of us buying some of this butter to see what all the fuss is about. So who is it ? Fess up.

Couldn't agree more. I had never seen a Lurpak TV ad (or never noticed them) until this week. Looks like a "fresh" all media marketing campaign to me.

The marketing plan is working for now...

Very cynical! Next there will be accusations of product placement.

I see what you did there.

Nice. So your email addy has a Lurpak in it too? I'm surprised your user name hasn't changed to suit.

Yes, for a "half hour" I was subliminally cynical.
To quote Oscar Wilde, I knew the price of butter and the value of nothing.
