There's no benefit to paying extra for a brand. The only difference is the label.

Wrong

This. Butter is made from the milk of cows. What cows eat determines what their milk and thus butter will taste like. A cow that eats corn and soy meal mixed with other shit to try and make it nutritious produces very different milk and butter from a cow that grazes on fresh grass most of it's life.

>>21506594 (OP)
You are not very smart.

My family almost exclusively used 'butters' like country crock and I can't believe it's not butter. It tastes fine, but real butter is so much better, I try to pick up any that are on sale. Grilled cheese and stir fry vegetables taste so much better with it

>>21506608
What the hell is that? They can't even call it margarine and have to label it as "Original Spread".

>>21506612
That's Country Crock's way of trying to hoodwink customers into thinking what they're buying is better than margarine.

>>21506608
I'm single and I've been thinking, is butter at that price thats just too much.
It's 4 bucks a pound if not on sale.
Fucking bullshit!

>>21506622
How does it stack up against I Can't Believe It's Not Butter?

>>21506594 (OP)
Nobody in their right mind buys salted butter. Butter with additives = made from shit tier (usually frozen) milk.

>>21506612
It's hydrogenated vegetable (this usually means soy) oil, I think it's legally distinct from margarine because it contains less fat. This was often used alongside corn or vegetable oil, though I preferred to use the olive and avocado oil that my family had when it was available

>>21506594 (OP)
Homemade butter is amazing though

>>21506643
>I think it's legally distinct from margarine because it contains less fat
They watered it down so much it's not legally margarine anymore.

Retarded butterlet take. There are some very high quality butters that have flaky sea salt rolled into them. Delicious for spreading on a nice baguette.

>>21506594 (OP)
>Butter is butter
cultured butter mogs regular butter any day.

>>21506757
That don't make no sense. Every butter is cultured. It legally isn't butter if it isn't cultured. Retarded zoomshitnigger.

>>21506759
WRONG! HA HA! YOU ARE WRONG!

They clearly differ in taste, consistency, color and texture. Wether you can actually taste the difference in a huge ass sub stuffed with 10 other ingredients is a a different matter

>>21506780
If you have the delicious and classic ham and butter sandwich you can ABSOLUTELY taste the difference.

>>21506785
Ham and butter is good, but I've always found mayo instead of butter to be tastier

>>21506804
Try using both next time it's actually delicious on certain sandwiches

>>21506785
Sure but that's only 2 ingredients apart from the bread. I would argue that butter quality doesn't matter so much in something more complex

>>21506635
I can't believe it's not butter has better flavor, but country crock was easier to spread

>>21506804
>mayo
Take the Miracle Whip pill.

A sandwich isn't a sandwich without the Tangy Zip of Miracle Whip.

In America the cows don't eat grass so the butter sucks. Anything that is grass fed is good when it comes to butter.

>>21506810
Depends, especially if you're using a based butter that has been rolled in flaky sea salt.

Puff pastry definitely gets better with a bit o' better butter.

>>21506822
Factually incorrect. There is plenty of high quality dairy being produced in america. You are simply ignorant of that fact.

>>21506822
There are grass-fed dairy products made in the US. Just not all of it.

>>21506818
Miracle whip is disgusting, it's a sad, flavorless imitation of real mayo. Hellman's is good, Duke's is even better.

>>21506594 (OP)
I am in aggreeance very much sir. The No Name butter brand is very good for us and chip on the wallet. I very much enjoying No Name butter

>>21506822
"Grass fed" is pure marketing. Ranchers that are too stingy to buy food for their animals have convinced you to pay extra for their avarice and cruelty.
You fell for it again.

>>21506827
NTA but why are Americans buying shit like I can't believe it's real butter on the lower end, or imported shit like Kerrygold on the higher end, if good American butter is so plentiful? It's weird.

>>21506835
>I don't understand what grass fed vs feedlot means
Grass-fed cows are still fed hay. (And vaccinated, etc.) The difference is they get to roam. Probably more expensive to maintain a grass-feeding farm operation desu when you consider all the expenses associated with maintaining vast tracts of farmland.

Retard

>>21506831
Dukes are liars.
>family recipe since 1917
>first ingredient is soybean oil
>food grade soybean oil wasn't even available in 1917
Authentic Dukes mayo should be made with cottonseed oil.

>>21506835
Maybe in yuropoor shitholes LMAO

>>21506845
> Probably more expensive to maintain a grass-feeding farm operation desu
It's committed by fly-by-night ranchers that have as little regard for animal welfare as they do the law. They do it to save money on feed by letting their animals scrape out a meager existence on land that doesn't even belong to them.

>>21506861
You have zero idea on how the cattle industry works. Like, at all.

>>21506594 (OP)
Holy fucking TASTELET!

>>21506847
Soybean oil is unavoidable in processed food unfortunately

>>21506848
Europoor animal cruelty is what people who fell for the "grass fed" meme pay extra for.

Cows can't eat grass 12 months out of the year. In the winter they eat corn and soy just like the non grass fed cows

Grass fed cows may be kept indoors for up to 7 months of the year

>>21506594 (OP)
>The only difference is the label.
Only sometimes is this true. There are store brands that have good guarantees on satisfaction or money back, but this is still a profitable promise given most people don't do store returns whatsoever.

I think Publix does some generic store brands better than brand name, such as sourdough english muffins, frozen fries and veggies, really decent sodas, store tortilla chips and their Kraft macaroni that has a better ingredient label without MSG and more real butter.

But, is their yogurt better, the fruit is the same or better, but it's a bit thinner, more like original yoplait. Their sour cream is not just as tangy and thick as Breakstones. Their ice cream is the best in the store.

>>21506608
>stir fry vegetables taste so much better with it
you're cooking stir fries in butter?

>>21506926
>In the winter they eat corn and soy just like the non grass fed cows
hay can be made from grass so you can still feed them grass even if they're not out on pasture

>>21506926
>Cows can't eat grass 12 months out of the year. In the winter they eat corn and soy just like the non grass fed cows
Wrong. WRONG. WRONG. Grass-fed cows eat grass the 12 months of the year. When winter comes they are taken indoors and fed hay.

If there are months of the year, on which cows are not fed their natural diet, and are instead given corn or soy based feed, then those farms loose their grass-fed status. They have to be labeled as "grain-finished" which is a different thing from wholly grass-fed.

The labels you are allowed to use are different. Stop talking about shit you know nothing about.

>hay can be made from grass so you can still feed them grass even if they're not out on pasture
Cool it with the anti semitic remarks.

Forcing people to walk several miles to get groceries is called a "food desert" and is considered a human rights issue.

Turning people out into an empty field and making them forage to survive would qualify as a genocide.

Trying to spin it as a nice thing when its done to animals is an inversion of reality.

It's not animal husbandry, it's animal cruelty. I've been up north to the Indian reservations, they raise dogs like grass fed cattle: plenty of freedom and exercise while they forage to survive.

>>21506949
>Turning people out into an empty field
putting a cow out on a field of grass would be like putting a person out onto a field of sandwiches

>>21506949
>Turning people out into an empty field and making them forage to survive would qualify as a genocide.
It's not an empty field, the pasture lands have to be maintained so that the cows can have feed available at all times.
Like I said there is an extensive cost involved in a grass-feeding operation, the purpose of which is to create fat and healthy cows for dairy or beef.

>I've been up north to the Indian reservations
And I'm talking about farming operations, subjected to rigorous safety inspections and quality tests, that produce beef or dairy for mass Human consumption, not some Indian reservation practicing subsistence agriculture, retard, do you understand the difference? The Indians are not packaging their beef in supermarkets and putting the grass-fed label on it, you are talking about some reservation in the boonies where people keep some cattle around, it's not an agricultural business.

A cow that feeds on random trash won't produce good quality meat or dairy. Probably won't produce anything of value at all.
Goddamn you are stupid, I hope you are a child and not an actual adult being this dumb.

Yeah, usually it's not that much since the meat also makes grease though. Before you ask, I'm not fat, not even chubby
