"Guys I'm scared": Butter candle season is a thing and it's coming
"Is this illegal? It feels illegal?"
A new culinary trend, the "butter candle," is gaining traction online, offering a unique and cozy way to enjoy bread and butter. The concept involves a stick of butter, fitted with a wick, placed within a hollowed-out or scored loaf of bread. As the candle burns, the butter melts into a warm, dippable pool, perfect for accompanying fresh bread. Videos circulating on social media platforms demonstrate users pulling apart pieces of bread and dipping them directly into the melted butter, or spreading it with a knife. This trend is particularly popular during cooler months, emphasizing comfort and warmth in home entertaining.
