yum i usually have mine out at room temp and then just mush it into whatever i am eating, i like it to be just melted enough to be all over everything, most of what i eat ends up looking like uncooked meat loaf....baked or raw veggies(depending on what they are/how they taste to me), meat, garlic, onion, some kinda or multiple fats (egg yolks, cod liver oil, warm butter, sometimes avocado, sour cream, yogurt, liver) all mushed up together and at room temperature or a little warmer, i really dont like eating cold things and rarely drink cold water, i think being obsessive about not warming stuff up is ridiculous, you have to go by what your body, digestion, etc tells you, every persons constitution is different and can assimlate proper nutrients differently...perhaps your body craves something cooked because the only way it can obtain this is that the certain nutrient becomes more available through cooking, WHO KNOWS just as long as you feel healthful, satisfied and nourished afterwords and gain energy and strength that is substantial, not fleeting, from the meal....honestly scientific jargon from the internet doesnt hold shit to how individual each one of us are....obviously you shouldnt char the fuck out of your butter, and maybe even not bring it even to a simmer, but you can certainly warm it up if you want, and if every once in a while you want hot butter on something baked, well then eat it, and if you eat it day after day and feel fine then continue, and if after a while you dont, then remember you must have moderation
