If you embrace the notion that natural fats are healthy fats, then you probably use butter. At the same time, you also embrace moderation, and that means a stick of butter lasts more than a couple of days in your kitchen.

Vat 19 sells butter bells, and they have created a little video showing just how they work. Check it out!
