    Reminds me of that George Carlin bit where people invent shelter to not freeze to death but find that food spoils faster inside, so they invent the fridge to keep their food cool inside of the warm shelter they invented. But the butter gets too hard in the fridge, so they invent the butter keeper which keeps the butter warmer inside of the box to keep food cooler inside of the shelter to keep themselves warmer.

        A little compartment on the inside of the door of the refrigerator that itself has a small door and you put the butter in there and it doesn't get as cold as everything else.

      as long as it doesn't get too hot where you live you can store butter at room temperature in a covered dish
