17 Signs That You're Addicted To Butter

Are you a junky? Here's how to find out.

There aren't many people out there who don't like butter. What's not to like? It's rich, flavorful and loaded with delicious fat. And it makes a boring piece of bread taste like the fanciest of foods. It's hands down one of the greatest ingredients out there -- all chefs will agree, Paula Deen especially.

But then there are some of you who are really into butter. Like, really, REALLY, into butter. Like so into it that your freezers are stocked with butter at all times -- just in case. And, you might even secretly own Paula Deen's butter-flavored lip balm (don't worry, we won't tell).

If this is you, we've got something to tell you: you are a BUTTER ADDICT. Don't worry, this is not the worst kind of addict to be. It's not like being addicted to Nutella. Sure, your cardiologist might not approve, but we give you two thumbs up. If you're not sure how serious your problem is, check out the 15 tale-tell signs that you are a bonafide butter junkie.
