We only use real butter (is there any other kind? ) and we've never had it go rancid without refrigerating.

We go through about a stick a week.

Yeah, you likely won't see butter go rancid in a week. It takes longer than that. But if it is rancid, you will know it. The colour might not give it away, although it does turn to a dark yellowy brown colour, but the taste sure will.

real butter will get rancid - it's just nasty - if left out for long periods of time. Margerine however, probably never spoils. I refridgerate mine but my Aunt doesn't and I've never seen it go bad.

That's because of all the chemicals in it. They preserve it well.

I saw a thread some where else where there was a disagreement regarding this and I'm wondering what most people here do.

No
Sometimes but prefer no (Mom refrigerates the Gulden's Spicy Mustard but I don't refrigerate the regular mustard)
No
No
No

Yes, I'm well aware of what rancid butter looks/tastes like. I live in WI.

Is WI home of the rancid butter or something?

I must have misunderstood your post. Sorry. I thought you said you had never seen butter go rancid before.

Well, I live in Wisconsin and have never seen rancid butter!

Of course we keep ours in the fridge!

Thanks. I wasn't really getting the connection between your fine state and spoiled food products.
