fake bad butter substitute names

That name cracks me up.

Once I Was Butter.

Butter-ish.

Yellow Semisolid

A store I used to shop at regularly had 1 called “is it butter?”. No capital letters, IIRC.

‘Butt’

Tag line: It’s not quite butter.

The standard butter knock-off in Canada is “Becel.”

The generative knock-off of the knock-off? “Cebel.”

I can’t believe it’s palmitic, oleic, and myristic glyceride with water!

Buckfutter

Brummell & Brown Spread, with yogurt. (Yogurt? The only buttery thing about yogurt is…buttermilk. And that ain’t very buttery.)

Not only is there the yogurt issue, I despise fake people-names for products. Then there’s the word “Brown.” Nothing purporting to be a dairy product should be “Brown,” unless it’s, like chocolate. Or gjetost.

Hmm…there is one girl that everyone in the office calls Margarine instead of Marjorie.

But I haven’t been working here long enough yet to work out why…

Reminds me of a great scene from The Vicar Of Dibley - “Well, I can’t believe I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter and the stuff I can’t believe is not I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter are not butter, and I believe that they both just might in fact be butter, but in cunning disguises, and in fact there’s a lot more butter out there than we believe.”

Butteresque

Brummel & Brown® Spread I think it’s actually very good.
