Hey /ck/
I don't venture on this board too often, but I figure you can help me with this.
This used to be butter. I've never seen milky butter before either. Girlfriend microwaved a bowl of butter and let it sit on the counter and now it looks like this.
Question is, can I use it to make cookies? Or will I die of butter-related aids
Morally, I'd throw that disgusting concoction of vile putrid ass into the bin right away
Honestly, I think it'd be fine in cookies as long as you stirred it all up or something
By butter related aids, I mean will it make the cookies taste like shit?
It's just some Betty crocker cookie mix where you just add butter and an egg anyways so its not like its gourmet or anything

Wow I have never seen that before. Usually when butter is melted and then cooled the fat solids go to the top and milk solids go to the bottom. Never have I seen milk just appear like that.
>>7323073
Honestly that's what I'm thinking too, because it looks nasty as fuck, but my other butter is frozen
>>7323075
At this point, your biggest worry would be bacteria or mold.
If it was overnight, I doubt its in any way contaminated, I mean it WAS microwaved..
>>7323079
Do you know what brand of butter it is?
How long exactly in hours was it out?
Are you SURE it was just microwaved and left out?
>>7323064
DON'T YOU HAVE A DAMN NOSE?
OUR EVOLUTIONARY FUCKING BRAIN KNOWS WHAT SMELL IS PUTRID POISON.
PUT YOUR NOSE INTO THE DAMN BOWL AND TAKE A DEEP BREATH.
IF IT IS NOT FUCKING RACID (SMELLS A BIT SOUR) OR PUTRID (SMELLS STINKY) THEN IT'S FUCKING GOOD TO EAT.
IF IT SMELL ALCOHOLIC, IT'S ALSO GOOD TO EAT BUT FLAVOR MIGHT CHANGE DUE TO FERMENTATION.
OUR ANCESTORS DIDN'T LIVE FOR MILLIONS OF YEARS FOR YOU TO NOT KNOW HOW TO FUCKING DISTINGUISH GOOD DAIRY FAT.

I am 100% sure it was microwaved last night and sat out for around 24hrs now.
Not sure on brand, probably Western Family (Canadafag here)
>>7323087
I'm an automotive mechanic, I don't know what good butter and bad butter looks like
>>7323090
Not sure what brand of butter would create a milk-substance and not a layer of fat, weird.
If I had to guess, its some offbrand buttercream or something?
If it doesnt smell weird then fuck it. Youre cooking it in an oven anyway.
Cook away and show us how the cookies turned out <3
>>7323096
DON'T LOOK, SMELL IT.
OMFG YOU HAVE LARGE REGION OF YOUR BRAIN DEDICATED TO FUCKING SENSE OF SMELL AND IT LINKS OUR ANCESTRAL SENSES IN THE AMYG-FUCKING -DALA TO YOUR DAMN BRAIN.
IF IT GOES BAD, WHEN YOU SMELL IT YOU WILL FUCKING KNOW IT.
DIDN'T YOU GOD DAMN PARENTS TAUGHT YOU THIS KIND OF SHIT?
PUT YOUR NOSE INTO THE FUCKING BOWL AND TAKE A DEEP BREATH BRUH!!! MILLIONS YEARS OF EVOLUTION BRUH, FUCKING HAVE FAITH IN YOUR ANCESTORS!

They seem a little large though.
Prepare your anus's
>>7323138
Can you even? Cause I can't.
But it's right though. You should smell it.

it's fine, i think when they make butter they take pure butterfat and add a small amount of saltwater, it just separates when microwaved.
i usually leave a stick of butter on the counter so i always have softened butter, it's never spoiled though it doesn't last longer than a week or so. it's mostly fat, and fat takes a while to spoil especially if it's been cultured and salted.

Ohboy this thread went south

Like I said, I work on trucks and I'm not a baker lol, looked good enough to me
I think I overcooked them a little bit. They just need to cool a little and I'll taste
>>7323177
Oof, shoulda done 8-10 mins on those puppies
>>7323064
It's fine bud the solid stuff is mostly clarified butter. Drain off the milk use it in a sautee pan like a low smoke point oil.
