Marathon to Snickers
Jif to Cif
You get my drift

So now I can't believe it's not butter is getting a name change
-- n original name was obviously not long enough--
So on your shopping list (if you buy the spread) make room for
I can't believe it's so good... For everything hmm

Oops original name was obviously not long enough

What - it's good for oiling your hinges, removing unmentionable stains, cleaning the bath? confused

Will it help my flat feet?

rosesarered Fri 27-Jan-17 20:03:46

I could butter them.

Cherrytree59 Fri 27-Jan-17 20:09:55

A miracle no less grin

Who would have thunk it !

rosesarered Fri 27-Jan-17 20:27:46

I suppose the question is though.....what does it taste like! ( It Sure Ain't Butter, a better name?)

grannylyn65 Fri 27-Jan-17 20:29:09

Butter the devil you know !!

Cherrytree59 Fri 27-Jan-17 20:35:04

For butter or worse ?

MawBroon Fri 27-Jan-17 20:46:03

Not so good for washing dishes, polishing the floor, laundry, killing off the greenfly on the roses and certainly not for feeding the dog.
I would want my money back.

Let me know if it's good for flat feet rosesarered
I will start buying it.

"I can't believe people buy I can't believe it's so good'

To deliver a smooth and creamy texture, of course! I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!® practically melts in your mouth, thanks to a small amount of palm and palm kernel oils blended with other plant-based oils.

Any good as a hair conditioner I wonder? Moisturiser?
From experience with real butter, an effective canine laxative.........?

Cherrytree59 Fri 27-Jan-17 21:49:54

jalima Not good for everything!

I don't buy the spread so was unaware that it contained palm oil.

Palm oil plantations are taking over the Orang-utan's habitat sad

Jalima Fri 27-Jan-17 23:20:33

Which model used margarine as a moisturiser? Marie Helvin?

I don't think it contains much palm oil but I would not buy it, although if it is a cure for flat feet I could perhaps just buy one tub if they claim it is ethically sourced.
Do you have to eat it or rub it on roses?

Our dog was rather fond of butter too MawB

Our German Shepherd would only eat toast if it was spread with butter, toast with 'spread' or margarine would be rejected. Intelligent dogs, German Shepherds!

As opposed to Labradors who eat anything ( even long dead and dried frogs on the path.)

rosesarered Sat 28-Jan-17 11:13:31

Jalima..... I have taken advice on this, and the best way to cure our flat feet is to butter them liberally with 'I can't believe' marge/butter, whilst eating toast spread with the stuff at the same time ! Am off to try it right now.

trisher Sat 28-Jan-17 12:04:04

I just can't believe it........

MawBroon Sat 28-Jan-17 13:08:58

"I can't believe it's no good .....for anything" could be a catchy name? grin

Jalima Sat 28-Jan-17 13:14:25

What about greasing a squeaky hinge?
Surely good for that - or would it smell rancid after a while?

Spaniels will eat anything too
and our terrier would eat - oh never mind, it's lunch-time
best not post it

Cherrytree59 Sat 28-Jan-17 14:17:07

jamila my old dad would say 'he could eat a Scabby dug(dog) '
I'm sure that's not what you were thinking!

My sisters spaniel when a pup thought cow pats were very tasty
shock

Maybe I should try it on my sebhorreic kerastosis ... (on another thread).

Ceesnan Sat 28-Jan-17 18:52:08

Our Almost Lab would only eat toast if it had butter/spread on it, and only then if it was spread evenly all over......unbuttered corners were spat out. She also loved a bowl of coffee, but with milk and two sugars please.

Maybe some dogs were people in their previous lives.grin
