If butter came in metal tubes, with wide flat metal caps that also served as the base for the tube (shower goo comes in plasitc tubes of this shape) - one could balance the tube on top of the toaster or the oven, thus melting the bottom of the butter, and squirt the melted butter about neatly.
I'd
like to go camping with this, too. Camping stores sell reusable plastic tubes to put peanut butter, etc., in; the right weight of metal might also be reusable. (Mmmm. Melted peanut butter could also be spread neatly. Chocolate, too, depending on temper.)
This is an alternate solution to taution's 'happy toaster' and one of egnor's annotations thereto, q.v.

Could be baked and improved upon by existing technologies. McD's has several sauces which are applies via chalking gun, a metal dispenser with replaceable cardboard tubes. However, rather than metal, i'd use ceramics or something so that its microwave safe. |

That's a caulking gun, nick_n_uit, unless you're commenting on McD's sauce consistency. |

Sure it's bakeable with present tech. It was bakeable with 1840s tech; metal squeeze tubes were invented then. But, like Frankenstein's monster, mere matter lies inert until struck by the vital spark of a bad idea. |

this is a tad off the subject, but i know a kid who kind of invented the "butter stick" which was basically like the twist up glue sticks only instead of cheap glue it would be filled with butter...It would be ideal for "rolling" on to bread... |

Miss Bunny's butter stick already exists as a Chindogu ... |
