Butter - a podcast by Brian Casey

We’ve known about butter for more than 10,000 years. It’s been a well understood product of the cow for at least that long.

Well, sort of. Understood is maybe a stretch. We knew how to make it, but understanding how and why it happened took longer than that. In fact, it took so long, that some folks worked up quite an extensive mythology to ensure that butter would keep happening. And then they threw it all away, along with the butter. Just like we’ve done in more recent times, so much so that fewer and fewer people know what actual butter tastes like any more. And all because some people were so well intentioned. Maybe we can fix that. Find out inside.
