I try to only keep about a week's worth of butter out at a time, mainly because I like to replace the dish with a clean one on a weekly basis.
That's a great idea! I put the whole stick on the dish, but I don't eat butter often enough, so it has gone rancid on me before. The smell of rancid butter is one I can't deal with. So gross! :puke: I'll easily take the smell of pig guts and poop on a hot summer's day than rancid butter.
Now you got me curious.

About what? The smell of rancid butter? I really don't recommend going to the effort to find out! Maybe others don't have the same reaction as I do, but I really do think it's in the top 5 foulest things I've ever smelled.

Never smelled rancid butter. I keep mine in the fridge. It still spreads easily enough if you slice it very thinly.
In my defense, I was left unsupervised.

Only real butter in this house -- I buy it at Costco.

When I was a kid, all we had was real butter. My mom bought all of our eggs and butter from a Mrs. Ford, "the egg lady" who came to the house every other week with our order. Sort of like the milkman, I guess. It was years before I knew butter came in sticks (Mrs. Ford's was a round wheel) and that most of the eggs at the grocery store were white, not the brown we got from her.
You can never get enough of what you don't need to make you happy.
