Can buttermilk replace half and half in a scone recipe?
Half and half is used in scone recipes to give a lightness of crumb and additional richness, both which are induced by the high fat levels in half-and-half (since it's half milk, half double cream).
Milk (particularly whole milk) would be a better replacement for half and half in a scone recipe than buttermilk. Buttermilk is very much like plain yogurt; when it's used in recipes which do not require a slight acidity, the resulting baked good will have a peculiar taste. (It's great in recipes which use bicarbonate of soda as the only raising agent, as buttermilk reacts to neutralise it and give extra lift. But this is not the leavening process used in scones).
Half and half (being half milk, half double cream) does not have anywhere near the same acidity as plain yogurt or buttermilk, making whole milk a better option (correct taste and higher fat content than buttermilk, making it more "similar" to half and half).
Is it safe to boil butter milk in carton?

you can, but the resulting muffin will not have as fluffy nor as moist a texture... the buttermilk's acidity is higher than that of regular milk, too, so the flavor will be a little different.
so all in all, major differences after baking would be first and foremost texture, and second, flavor.
In my opinion,yes,it's made out of sour milk and tastes like sour cream!

Is the ratio the same for buttermilk as it is for whole milk?
It depends very much on the recipe in which the substitution is made. Buttermilk has a different acidity than whole milk, as well as less fat. Additional baking soda will need to be added and perhaps a bit of oil or butter, if buttermilk is substituted for whole milk.
Can Buttermilk be substitued for oil in baking a cake?

How many calories are in a buttermilk bar?
You need to weigh the buttermilk bar. Donuts average about 130 to 150 calories per ounce. Buttermilk bars are likely near the 150/ounce end due to the buttermilk and larger surface area for soaking up the frying oil. So a typical bar that weighs 6 oz. is about 900 calories, but oh so worth it!
