Is it correct that BUTTER also can turn mouldy even if you put in fridge?

[asiafrenz]

Didn't know till i saw my newly cut butter placed in a click-lock container show dots of black stuff (which i think is mould) after a week of not using the butter for bread, end up throwing it away

Yalor. Your knife wet or dirty.

think your butter knife or utensils are dirty

i washed the butter knife before use and the container was clean

 

[Balian]

clean your fridge, container, butter knife - entire kitchen

 

[tanahgu]

u contaminate the butter chunk with bread bits or saliva on the knife
i always buy abt 8 x 250g blocks and they last 2 months in my fridge

 

[RedOrion]

Your fridge contaminated? Or you keep your butter exposed inside the fridge? Most folks able to keep butter for 1 - 2 months?

Now butter too expensive lar... I stop buying them liao... rather spend the money on cheese slices instead.. cheaper...

 

[Localborn]

I have kept butter in fridge for more than 6 months. No issue

 

[asiafrenz]

so looks like the issue might have been water from the butter knife cause the mould on the butter

Ya.. water got bacteria.. i always wipe dry my knife before using.. my butter kept for 1 year le.. expiring soon.. same reason why bread will mold quickly if got moisture.
