Today we decided to test the taste of several butter brands available from our local Food City supermarket here in Bay Ridge and these are the results.
| Brand | Grade | Fat | Cream | Sodium | Observations |
| White Rose | AA | Total Fat 11/17% Saturated Fat 7g/37% |
Cream | 95 mg 4% |
Pale Yellow; Bland Taste. |
| Land O Lakes | AA | Total Fat 1g/17% Saturated Fat 7g/37% |
Sweet Cream |
95 mg 4% |
Pale Yellow; Bland Taste; Slightly Stronger than White Rose. |
| Breakstone | Unknown (Kosher) |
Total Fat 11/17% Saturated Fat 7g/35% |
Cream | 90mg 4% |
Darker Yellow; Taste is Too Strong. |
| Hotel Bar | AA (Kosher) |
Total Fat 11/17% Saturated Fat 7g/35% |
Cream | 90mg 4% |
Pale Yellow; Taste is Way Too Strong. |
Both Kosher butters have less Saturated Fat than the other butters and both have a stronger taste. Only Land O Lakes said it was made from Sweet Cream which means the cream from the top of the milk. The others only said cream which meant there could have been some whey cream in them.
Mummy and Daddy liked Land O Lakes best. I liked White Rose best.
We decided to cook with Land O Lakes because we know it is made of Sweet Cream. See out Butter Facts page to learn more.
