I tried Kerrygold when I went to Ireland, so it was proper Irish Kerrygold my family switched to using it for a few months once back in England but then we switched back to Bertolli spread because we prefer the taste. But I agree that Kerrygold is freaking delicious too.0

Too bad you don't live in Wisconsin. By law, restaurants and food service have to serve butter. They can have margarine or other non-butter spreads available for customer requests. Just go and eat out and you will have a chance to taste real butter.
Trust me, there is no comparison.

I can't believe I live in a world where someone would doubt that butter tastes good.
Margarine wouldn't EXIST if butter didn't taste good, FFS. Margarine only exists because there were war-related shortages and people were so desperate for sweet, yummy butter that they tried to make substitutes to tide them over til victory.
Yes, that's right. Margarine exists because of HITLER. It's the Godwin condiment.
Science.

You've never tried butter!!? 1/4 of foods that are delicious are delicious because they're buttery!

Ah, gotcha. Well you're in for a treat. I want to try Kerrygold now, but don't worry about it if your store doesn't have that. I'm sure they have good old american butter!0 -
Butter is in my top 5 most frequent foods. For a reason.0 -

It doesn't. I promise.
Do this.
Take three bowls. Buy a good butter, kerrygold ain't bad. Plugra ain't bad, but I'm rather partial to those hippy amish folks and their rolled butter.
Let the butter raise to room temperature. In each bowl place 1-2T of butter.
Bowl one - plain.
Bowl two - add salt and fresh cracked black pepper.
Bowl three - add a dollop of honey
Mix them all in order to incorporate, or to just break it down into a smooth spreadable mass. Do it as a vertical tasting, starting at plain, ending at sweet. Use a nice baguette.
Treat yo'self!0 -

Not worth it.
If you're going to do it though, take the cream, add 1/2t of aroma B thermo bacteria, and let it sour a little, then make the butter.
butter is one of those things, nice to try to make once, but seriously... unless you live on a dairy and need to preserve your milk, just buy it.0 -

I plan on using the cream from my raw milk so I don't need to add bacteria to it. And it is kind of one of those things that I want to try once.

Ignore the price here, look for the product package. This is how we get it, but it comes from a local mennonite community. It's a somewhat common thing it seems.0 -

I'm not worried about price, I just don't know what the package would/should say or look like. I guess Whole Foods should have it.0 -

Oh I mean the full derp price of $27.50 for the pound from that amazon listing. They run about $7-8 a two pound pack here in the outer rim territories. I would assume Whole paycheck should have it.0 -

Wowsa, that's a lot of money for a pound. Jesus. I could drive to Amish territory and still not use enough gas to hit $27. LOL.
Correct?

Yeah, we keep the best for ourselves. Most of the national brands made in Wisconsin are decent, but the best dairy and especially cheese stays local.

It's hokey, I know but I figure since I make my own yogurt and cottage cheese why not try butter?
