truffle butter
Mushroom-infused dairy spread
Truffle butter has two meanings.
The culinary sense is butter infused with truffles—the prized fungi—used to finish pasta, steaks, or risotto: a pat of truffle butter on the filet.
The vulgar slang sense, popularized by a 2015 hip-hop song, refers to the mixture of lubricant and fecal matter that can result from anal sex.
