I always get unsalted butter. I used to get it to have on hand for
recipes that called for unsalted but usually ended up using it for other
things to use it up. I developed a preference for it. I don't use a lot
of butter and usually just keep in on a covered dish on a counter. It
may be out for a week or more before it is used up. It has never gone
bad.
