as a rule with dairy, the higher quality it is, and the fresher, the easier it is for your body to tolerate :)Best,

 

Hi Sandy,

 

I mostly read the posts and only seldom make a contribution, but as I have seen changes to butter of recent times, I felt I could respond.

Look for butter which is just cream and salt only OR maybe cultured butter if you're handy to a local farmers market. Lately I have seen butter with " water added " or/and " milk products " . The latter being definitely not legal. Pretty sad when they take a product so natural and start mucking around with it but there you go!

I have not purchased butter in many, many years but I would like to use some for a little flavoring. I am doing so well I don't want to go wrong with this. Any thing I should watch out for - just a few tips would be helpful. Thanks.Sandy

Sandy,If you can find Anchor butter that is a good brand. They state on their website that all their cows are grass fed like nature intended and there is nothing but cream and a bit of salt (if you get the salted one). I think it is from New Zealand and it is really good. If you can't find it, you definitely want to get a butter that is made from cream from grass-fed cows, though. If you have a local dairy farmer, buy his cream. Making butter is a snap! I learned how to do it in a really old fashioned way -- in a glass gallon jug, 'churning' it while rocking in a rocking chair! ; ) I think now it is easier in a blender with ice (to help solidify the butter into clumps).AmeliaTo: BTVC-SCD Sent: Thu, April 15, 2010 2:13:41 AMSubject: butter

I get the unsalted kind. The only ingredients are .... Awww I threw the box

away. Just make sure it says cream (I think) and salt if you get salted. Some of

them add annato which is a natural coloring from a tree. I had gotten one

variety that had natural flavorings which could have been annatto but I didn't

buy it again. Borden brand doesn't have anything and neither does the Wal Mart

Great Value brand.
