It certainly seems weird, but we’ve seen much weirder things done with tomatoes (here, here, here and here for example). The ingredient combo doesn’t sound completely out of the realm of normal — a bit like a warm Bloody Mary (with butter), liquefied spaghetti sauce (which usually has oil in it, after all) or a more drinkable tomato soup.
It’s just a very out of context sensory experience absent pasta or oyster crackers, a fork or a spoon. A pizza crust. Vodka.
Who knows, maybe if the internet had been around in 1975, this unique recipe would have gone viral like bulletproof coffee did a few years ago — yet another beverage people randomly started adding butter to until it started to seem less strange.

Land O Lakes Hot Buttered Tomato Juice
The taste sensation is a surprising “wow.” Butter blends the subtlety of oregano and the zip of Worcestershire with the goodness of tomato juice.
And you start, of course, with Land O Lakes, America’s no. 1 butter. It’s made only from fresh sweet cream for flavor that’s naturally delicate. Look for other recipes in specially marked Land O Lakes butter cartons.
