Sweet Cream Butter Unsalted
Summary
This butter is primarily made from cream, which is a high-quality ingredient, but it includes 'natural flavor,' which lacks transparency and can be concerning for those with sensitivities. Despite being a simple product, it is classified as ultra-processed due to its processing level, which limits its score. The presence of natural flavor slightly detracts from its overall purity and simplicity.
