Where do YOU keep your Vegemite?

[kawaiikitsune]

Personally, for my jars of wasps, I like them in the cupboard. That way they are nice and active.

Also, I found out yesterday that my mom is pro counter-butter. I judged her a little.

[icaughtfire]

Do you see the majority of people refrigerate their butter?? This makes my heart so happy.

[zombiesquad]

Oh, dear. I don't even know what vegemite is. I hardly knew what the cupboard was then I realized it's fancy for pantry which is where I keep my wasps. I keep my bananas in a fruit basket on the table.

I am LOLing at "regrigerate," and I don't know why! Obviously I knew what you meant, it just looks like such a funny word!

Alex Lee (author), are you on the board?? Did GKU give you this idea?? Haha.

OF COURSE AUTOCORRECT DOESN'T WORK WHEN I WANT IT TO!!!

And I had to go back & change because being wrong just doesn't feel right.

Vegemite makes me think of Crocodile Dundee.

Yessssahhhh!!!

[housecarder]

I honestly did not know that you could leave butter out until I was married and I saw my ex do it. But I also grew up on and still use country crock tub spread.

1. Vegemite is guh-ross.

2. cupboard

Haha just realized my typo!

[thechickencoop]

WTF is Vegemite? Bananas and avocados go on the counter; they get funky in the fridge!!

Deja vu.

[lilsneezy]

Unripened avocados go on the counter. Ripe ones go in the fridge!

[wowcheezits]

What's a vegemite? I got 50/50 on that.

[swivelchair5]

My butter is in the fridge.

DH and I disagree on whether or not hot sauce should be in the fridge. So we have our own bottles - mine is in the fridge, his is on the counter.

AND DON'T YOU FORGET IT.

My mom always kept the bread and butter on the counter. Now, I don't have a lot of counter space so the bread goes in the fridge. We put condiments in there too because we don't use them enough to keep them out.

Keeping eggs at room temp just seems iffy!

My butter, one stick at a time, stays soften and easily spreadable teeming with bacteria on the counter.

FTFY.

I've yet to know anyone who has had ill effects from room temp butter. Soooo...*insert emoji sticking tongue out* I do what I want! #teamcounterbutter

Because bacteria can't grow on butter since it's a lipid not a sugar. It needs a food source to be able to live and multiply, and for bacteria, butter doesn't cut it. #science #counterbutter

Also, I have a butter dish with a lid. All my butter is in the fridge except one stick.

#teamcounterbutter

Technically, we keep it in a cupboard with the peanut butter and similar items. But we refrigerate everything not currently being used.

[lazyreader]

There is a big difference between butter and margarine.

Hahaha, I like it.

[ladyvenice]

If we get proper butter it stays in is on the counter during the day and goes into the fridge overnight. If we get spreadable butter it just stays in the fridge.

Me too. Unless I'm baking and need a couple sticks to soften first.

BOOOM! Y'all got scienced. Put all the butter in the fridge except the delicious soft stick you want to spread on stuff, which obviously lives in a covered dish next to the toaster.

Fake butter is irrelevant and disgusting. 

Also, I desperately want to know who created counterbutter and refrigerateallthingz? /Ded. 

[lovetruly2015]

We keep our butter in the fridge for the most part except for a stick the stayes in a butter dish on the counter for sandwiches and toast and stuff.

[requiressnacks]

I have a stick of butter on my counter as we speak, in a covered butter dish. #teamcounterbutter

[twocents6708]

#teamcounterbutter here for the same reason mentioned. It caused a grand debate at our house a few weeks ago. I settled and won that argument with the help of Dr. Google. And I kindly reminded my hubby that we eat real butter in our house, which is different than margarine. Wife win!

[raelien23]

haha I'm 100% #teamcounterbutter

Always have, always will
