anyone try using the "amish roll butter"- its a big fat roll of butter. If so does the whole roll fit in the bell?

I use that butter and no it won't fit. I keep the Amish "log of butter" in the fridge and I cut a chunk off and put it in the butter bell. I think you can refill the bell at least a half dozen times from that. You wouldn't want to keep the whole thing out anyway unless your house goes though a LOT of butter. I keep several different kinds of butter in the fridge (salted, unsalted, cultured...) and keep small portions out in a bell for toast and whatnot. The stuff in the fridge i use for cooking/baking or longer storage. One thing to note: I find that homemade butter and unsalted specialty butter do not last as long in the butter bell as a typical salted butter in warm climates. Lastly, when filling it, cut off a chunk, put it in the bell like a cup and let it warm up. Then push the butter down, smooth it out, add water and flip it over. It's much easier than trying to mash in cold butter.

is this made in China? If not where?

It is apparently made in China. Our first one came from Europe.

Does it contain lead?

No, there is no lead in the paint.

Even though I pack it tightly, my butter falls out into the water sometimes. Any suggestions?

i never use the water. i just put my butter in. put the lid on and always have soft spreadable butter. it has never gone bad on me.
