Three unlikely creatures...
Sounds like the part of a Disney movie where they start singing about what a great life they have together right before the problem crops up.
Our cousins haven't a coronation in awhile so when I first heard Stone of Scone, I thought what? Does it have a sword stuck in it or something?
No, but it has some lovely jam on top.
My history teacher in HS was a classmate of the students who brought the Stone of Scone home. She was quite proud of them.

For me the main difference is whether or not it's cultured. It's just tastier that way. For years we've been making our own cultured butter with a starter a friend gave us. It's delicious--and you end up with very fresh cultured buttermilk in the process.
