but that stuff was amazing... Anything cooked in Irish butter is great also.. A bit in my coffee was delish also...
So Bog butter 5000 years old means they were raising cows for milk way back then.. I visited a ancient settlement in Co Mayo called Céide Fields. A walled farm field over 6000 years old. Ancient artifacts and houses on the site over looking the Atlantic ocean.. Truly amazing..
And the butter was good!! 😌
