Episode notes
Watch For "Natural Flavor" On Labels
- Avoid Cabot Creamery products that list "natural flavors" or color stabilizers since those often use oil carriers.
- Choose purer brands because flavor carriers can introduce seed oils and contamination risks.
Leave Spreadable Butters On The Shelf
- Don't buy spreadable or "canola" blends like many Land O'Lakes spreadable butters.
- Real butter spreads from fat composition and doesn't need vegetable oil to be spreadable.
Skip Inconsistent Store-Brand Butter
- Avoid Walmart Great Value butter because regional variability can mean seed-oil emulsifiers substitute real butter.
- Don't compromise cellular fats by buying inconsistent, low-fat-content house-brand butters.
