Bronze age butter

A 3000-year old cask of butter is found in Ireland. Archaeologists are now combing the countryside for some 3000-year old scones.

Try the dining room of the Randolph Hotel, Oxford. I'm sure I saw some last time I was there.

I looked at the picture, and all I could think was, "Man, they didn't believe in 1/4-lb sticks in those days! Must have needed more butter to fry pterodactyl eggs or whatever they had back then."
