We had the exact same meat grinder. We made our own butter too, with the glass churn with all the metal gears and the wooden paddle. Did you have one of those?
Didn't figure out butter until one day I was whipping some cream and left the mixmaster on too long. Ewww! When I realized I had invented butter, though, I went around making it all the time.
Ha! City boy! I made butter from breast milk for my first baby because I was so paranoid about not giving him dairy products until he was a year old. Of course, five minutes later after this intense labor of love, he fed the buttered toast to the damned dog. So, no more of that nonsense. But for one brief, shining moment, I was the crunchy granola mommy of the year.
He fed it to the DOG? That's like that scene in Annie Hall where Alvy sneezes into the cocaine.
I've made accidental butter via whipping cream too. People don't get how good that is.
