Margarine and its viscosity.

[Pete MB&D]

No butter for me on anything, toast and jam or sandwiches without it, you quickly get used to it.
I can't stand it now it just tastes wrong, and marg, well I spent a fortnigh in hospital as a kid (about 10 years old) we had to eat a slice of white bread and marg with each meal, I really struggled to eat it, and haven't touched it since.

Here! Awaiting clarification. (Snigger)

Its global warming. The viscosity decreases with increasing temperature.

You may have a long wait until someone churns out the facts.

Whilst we are on this subject, what about Benecol, is it any better for you than marg?

I think you are whipping up a spread in a teacup.

This must rank highly in a list of the most bizarre thread titles ever!

You’ll have to ask him, I’m not his bleeding receptionist.

 

[PhilofCas]

How many centistokes was it before compared to now?!

(I once spent a summer at the NEL measuring the viscosity and compressibility of a variety of fluids)

was about 6 last time I checked, now it’s over 20

I’ll second that. A thread to draw in the scientifically minded and....err....’free spirits’.

This.

Was hoping someone serious would be along to offer a scientific answer, instead of all this piss taking

 

[TheDecameron]

I’m afraid you were asking for it. Unto those who ask, shall it be given.

I'm doing my best but you won't answer the question. Real marge or some other sh*t?

Dec, will you hold my calls please? If Kylie rings tell her Friday's OK but I'm busy Saturday and I'll call her back. Thanks.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

It's nice, but it's not butter. Too low a melting point, it's a liquid fat. It doesn't have the melt which is what makes dairy fat so magnificent.

I agree.

I find olive oil too "oily" for breakfast and before bedtime but fine at other meals.
The same is true for strong soft-cream cheese:

 

[stevec67]

Ah yes, aged soft cheese. Now that's another subject altogether.

The runny shite in question is: ‘I can’t believe it’s so good’ (honest!) can’t remember where we purchased said item.

 

[Stunsworth]

Mmmm, runny cheese. I love it.
