Viral Kitchen Hack: Woman's Unique Method For Buttering Toast Divides Internet

A recent viral video by content creator Marf 💛, known as @marfmaay, has sparked a lively debate online with her unconventional method for buttering toast. Uploaded from Australia on June 19, 2025, the video, which has amassed over 2.2 million views, showcases Marf's technique of directly rubbing a cold stick of butter onto warm toast. In the video, Marf explains that she keeps her butter in the refrigerator, making it "rock solid." To circumvent the difficulty of spreading cold butter with a knife, she demonstrates how the warmth of freshly toasted bread effectively melts the butter directly from the stick, allowing for an even spread. She then displays the butter stick, now adorned with a few toast crumbs, and playfully asks her audience, "Does that offend people or what's her thoughts? Anyone else do this? I just think it's like the easiest way of spreading butter on your toast." The method, while simple, has clearly resonated with a large audience, prompting discussions and reactions across social media platforms regarding its efficiency and whether it's a culinary faux pas or a clever shortcut.
