If a close family member (MIL or FIL) did this in your home, would you reprimand them for it, or just decide that the loss of a $1 stick of butter a few times a year is something you are OK with (or maybe you'd just never serve corn again LOL)?


Wouldn’t reprimand a guest for this and wouldn’t think a stick of butter was ruined by doing this.


+1. I don't think it is polite. But I would never be offended/say something/huck out my corn for this infraction.

Now if some had started eating from their cob and then did this I'd probably be horrified, move the corn closer to them and make sure none of my kids or family tried to use the butter.

No and I think it’s gross.

Yes at home and it does not ruin the stick of butter.

None of this is necessary.

Brush or spread a little softened butter onto the corn, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and grill it.

We butter a slice of bread and roll the corn around in it. Works great.

I didn't start doing this until late in life living by myself, but yeah. Only at home though.

Corn is good anyway, but butter makes it (as Garrison Keillor said may years ago) better than sex.

Amazon sells this which is the same idea. Fox Run Butter Spreader with Built-In Cover, Plastic https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000I1Y2PK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_EQ54Y379KTVYWB42ARYD


This is what I grew up using and we have one now. The only challenge is that it is designed for west coast butter which is a shorter/fatter stick of butter.

Never. I cut off a pat of butter and run it down the corn.

Uh, we'd never serve THOSE PEOPLE corn again. Other, normal people? Sure.

No. My husband does and I can’t stand it since the stick of butter is not dedicated for the corn. The rest of the family cuts off a piece of butter.
