Following a conversation Russell and I have had, if buttering a Digestive biscuit, which side do you butter?

Text side up (on the left) or bottom side up (on the right)?

Bottom side up, quite obviously.

Obviously you would never do it, but it's a good hypothetical question (if a bit easy to answer definitively).

Writing up for me. Although I'm adding cheese rather than butter.

Votes for buttering the underside please.

Comments are great, but Mimi can only have her wrongness proven to her in vote form.

I agree with the good Doctor. Why on earth would you add butter to a digestive biscuit?

Author:  Dr Zoidberg [ Mon Dec 14, 2015 19:15 ]
Post subject:  Re: You're doing it all wrong

The obvious answer is that I wouldn't butter one, but *if* I'd taken leave of my senses and decided to do it then I'd do the underside as it has a slightly larger and well defined area.
That makes it easier to get a nice even covering right up the edge.

Because it tastes amazing, fool.

That's why cheesecakes are so awesome.

Butter and lemon curd is nice. And bottom up, of course. Only wrongoloid would butter the top.

I'm now seriously considering trying this, seeing as I'm away from home again this week and therefore will not attract the wrath of 'er indoors, although she might be a secret Digestive Butterer herself. She could be indulging right now, and I wouldn't know about it.

And if I do, it'll be bottom side up. It's obviously designed with butter grips on its bottom, as any fule no.

Author:  Mimi [ Mon Dec 14, 2015 20:50 ]
Post subject:  Re: You're doing it all wrong

It has to be butter though. Not Flora... not Utterly Butterly... not even I Can't Believe It's Not Butter. And salted, obviously.

Obviously only a wrong 'un eats buttered digestives, but if I had to do it, I'd butter the bottom, like all right thinking people.

Post subject:  Re: You're doing it all wrong

For you wrongoloids stating that digestives shouldn't be buttered, why are hovis digestives included in many a cracker selection box? And of course, it is text side up, unless you are putting two together, then one of them is text side down.

Author:  lasermink [ Mon Dec 14, 2015 21:36 ]
Post subject:  Re: You're doing it all wrong

Digestives with a mug of steaming hot cocoa. OM NOM.

Edit: No butter.

Author:  Grim... [ Mon Dec 14, 2015 21:56 ]
Post subject:  Re: You're doing it all wrong

The amount of people who think you put things out the bottom of something is odd. Do you serve them butter side down?

Author:  Dr Zoidberg [ Mon Dec 14, 2015 22:09 ]
Post subject:  Re: You're doing it all wrong

Spread and eat. Spread and eat.

Why would you put them down?

Author:  Malc [ Mon Dec 14, 2015 22:29 ]
Post subject:  Re: You're doing it all wrong

If your going to butter it, you butter the rough side. Then you add another biscuit, with the rough bits meeting. And you hold the smooth bits.

But I wouldn't butter them. However hovis crackers have a similar design, and I love spreading dairylea on them.

Fool! Everyone know buttered things land butter side down, if dropped. Thus, we tinker with the laws of the universe by putting the butter where Mother Nature least expects it.

Not the ones where the crackers are in the shape of a loaf of bread. Round ones, that are not digestives.

Also, I put it to you, what side do mcvities put the chocolate on chocolate digestives? That strikes me as the side to be adding stuff to.

The top one there is a packet of crackers, the bottom one is a packet of digestives.
