Default Devondale -V- Western Star (Buttererd Crumpet Test)

There were a couple of bias in some variables, to be fair this was Devondale BUTTER
Vs the last dregs of 1 week old Western Star Spreadable.

But the results were surprising and are sure to shock and offend.

Previously WSS scored a perfect 10 on the buttered crumpet test due to it's truly
amazing flavor.

This time, 2 crumpets were toasted to just within browning and given equal portions
of butter, 1 crumpet 1 butter!

Western Star looked sure to win, but Devondale edged past the finish line by a nose!

Devondale is a much creamier flavor, and put WSS back to 9, and scored itself the
unfathomable 11!

Australian Skepitcs Society were asked if they could validate the results but we
received the standard reply.

Default Devondale -V- Western Star (Buttererd Crumpet Test)

I thought the whole point of the test was to compare different brands of spreadable butter substitutes (which might or might not contain some amount of butter). Nothing was ever going to beat pure real butter in a crumpet test. The test was supposed to be Devondale Dairy Soft vs. the best of the Western Star spreads (probably Original Spreadable).

P.S. Coach, I cannot bottom-post on a different indent with this formatting. Complaint noted and ignored.

Yes but I was in a hurry at Nigthowl.

If we use the hypothesis that pure Butter will beat it's spreadable version, then a negative result
would have ruled out Devondale, so the result is simply "more research".

Atleast we know both Spreadable varieties DD & WS are still in the running, and the DD pure Butter version
was still easy to spread, took a minute longer to melt.

Haven't eaten that rancid shit Western Star for nigh on thirty years.
I didn't even know they were still making it.
