Canadian butter is the best in the world, we have high standards and don’t allow America to drag us down with them. We don’t even consider American milk a dairy product because it’s full hormones and steroids. Trump attacked us with tarrifs because we refused to stop having high standards.

I sip delicious milk and eat amazing cheese and cook with the best butter in the world and there isn’t anything they can do about it.

Because there is a shocking number of people who don't understand that you get what you pay for. They'll go to their local grocery store, grab the cheapest, additive filled butter they can find, but still will blame the recipe when it turns out shit. If you don't specify that you meant "something that isn't complete garbage", someone will use garbage and bitch to you about the results.

Dude go to any supermarket in the US. It makes most any market in the EU look like a USSR food line in comparison. Fuck even at a more moderately sized store, there are probably like 10-15 brands of butter on the shelf. So sometimes in the US you need to cut through that shit and tell you which one is good. Kerrygold is probably the best butter of all the nationally distributed ones. I've also paid more for US butter that isn't as good. Amish butter isn't as good either most of the time, but because you are buying like a fucking 1 foot cube of it, you get that bulk savings.
