Had to deal with another butter reader in the grocery store earlier this morning. For those of you who haven't heard me use this expression before, it's one of those people (usually old ladies but not always) who stands and stares at groceries on the shelves for at least twenty minutes and blocks as much of the shelf as they possibly can with their body and their cart. They will get very offended if you say "excuse me" or anything like that. Covid seems to have brought out more of these people because of course it's more risky.

I love your expression. I've certainly run into my share of "butter readers" at the grocery store. I'll have to remember this because it's a perfect description.

That is an excellent expression.
