Are you doing clean eating or paleo? I don't think paleo allows it but I think you can still use it for clean eating.0

unsalted
Look at the ingredients. I'd personally rather have some butter made of only cream and salt vs. unsalted butter with tons of ingredients.0 -

Butter should have a maximum of 2 ingredients, and only 1 ingredient if it is unsalted.0

I wonder how they get away with that? Cattle will be grazed in the summer, probably fed silage (which is made of gass, obviously) in the winter, but I can't see them getting no cake whatsoever.0 -

That's why I said check the label. Some of them DO have tons of ingredients.0 -

Those aren't butter then. I've never seen anything marked as "butter" that had a "ton of ingredients." Margarine does, but not butter. What brand are you looking at, WBB55?0 -
Substitute for olive oil?0

For instance Land O Lakes:
Ingredients: Sweet Cream, Natural Flavoring
Just a reminder that this was a topic about "clean" eating. Which means different things to different people. "Natural" flavorings aren't necessarily considered "clean" by some people. That's the only reason I brought up checking out the label. In no way did I mean to insult people's butter.0 -

Here's a list of what those "natural" ingredients are. Again. Just to emphasize the idea of "clean" eating differs from person to person. I'm not trying to stop ANYONE from eating unsalted butter. I eat it myself. But I don't consider my diet "clean," either.
diacetyl, acetaldehyde, ethyl formate, ethyl acetate, acetone, ethyl alcohol, 2-butanone, acetic acid and acetoin
Edit to add: Of course, it depends on the butter. Some unsalted butters use MSG as the "natural flavor." YMMV.0 -

i plan on using olive oil - its more a taste thing for a change when eating my veggies etc0 -

I just checked my package of unsalted butter (I bake), and the ingredient is cream. That's it.
Although I do agree, "clean eating" differs from person to person. There is no set rules on what you can and can't eat.0 -
