I've heard we should have real butter, but what is it called out there in the store? Any good brands?

    Well it is called butter.

    Ingredients are going to be either cream or cream and salt.

    Kerry Gold is awesome as it is made from the dairy of grass fed cows.

    If you're switching from artificial butter (margarine) to real butter, be prepared to pay about three times as much. But, it's great to avoid trans fats.
    The only ingredients of real butter are cream and salt, so the cheapest butter is just about as good as the most expensive. Start with the store brand if there is one.
