  1. I accidentally grabbed a bunch of salted butter.
    What would I use this for? Should I just throw it away?

    Define "a bunch". Regardless of how much you "accidentally grabbed", I see
    no reason why you would throw it away. You could spread it on toast,
    pancakes, waffles, etc. use it in any sauce that calls for butter, e.g.
    scampi. Or, freeze it until you think of something better...

    Are you nuts? Don't throw it away. The amount of salt in salted butter is
    neglible at best. If you're overly sensitised to salt then just don't use
    it where salt is called for.

    I did that recently and didn't notice until I tasted it. I "treated" myself
    for the duration of it's existence in the fridge.

    You COULD return it. They wouldn't have any objection.

    Why would you do that?? Just don't use it for baking.

    Or use it and just leave any other salt out of the recipe.

    I like salted butter on steamed veggies.

    I use it for baking too. It doesn't have enough salt in it to make a
    difference.

    By all means, throw it away. That's why they make it - so you can
    buy it and just throw it away.

    <lol> No.

    It's my personal preferred for seafood.
    Just don't add salt to the recipe!

    boil some spaghetti, meanwhile open a tin of tomatoes and whack on a
    high heat. when the pasta is ready add a big nob of butter to the
    tomatoes and mix through. a lush and simple lunch, the butter makes
    the dish nice and sweet.

    Oh don't be an ass. There is such a miniscule amount of salt in salted
    butter it's laughable. You want to throw away $4, go for it. But don't be
    an idiot and tell everyone else to do so.

    OF COURSE!! That is what any snooty self proclaimed chef would do.

    No. Pack it carefully in a styrofoam box with some dry ice,
    and send it to me. I'll see that it doesn't harm you. 😉

    Or he could just spread it real nice and thick on some lovely fresh bread,
    and spread a thick layer of Promite over and munch away!!!
