Lands Butter facts
While investigating facts about Lands Butter, I found out little known, but curios details like:
Toast falling off a plate lands butter-side down almost 2/3 of the time.It’s nothing to do with one side being buttered, its that as the toast goes over the edge of the plate, it starts to rotate, but the spin-rate is too slow to bring the butter-side up again by the time it hits the floor
According to a 2001 study, when toast is dropped from a table, it lands "butter-side-down" 62% of the time.
