For me the order would be president, lurpak, kerrygold, anchor, country life.

Lurpak, Wheelbarrow, President

Unsalted varieties of all.

You can keep that dessicated semen of Satan out of my dairy products thank you very much.

[Mr Beaumont]

President, although I think Asda do a Channel Islands salted butter which is very nice.

Yup - my local dairy butter from cows in the next field cut from a big block and wrapped in cling film. Makes any supermarket butter taste like Happy Shopper Margarine-style Value Spread!

There is a French one in Waitrose which actually large salt crystals in it.........AMZING on some freshly baked bread.

Or Anchor!

It's Breton which is how I get round my usual anti-French prejudice*. It is excellent, and copes reasonably well with warmer weather, ie doesn't turn into oil. In the winter I get the Helen's Farm Goats Butter, also sold by Waitrose. It spreads quite well in cold weather.

• I don't mind buying French wine or cheese because obviously it's pretty irreplaceable... but I usually object to buying French stuff that other countries do well.

+1 for local farmhouse butter
