Summary

This butter is primarily made from pasteurized cream, which is a high-quality source of dairy fat, providing essential nutrients. However, the inclusion of 'natural flavoring' introduces a level of processing that reduces transparency and may include heavily processed substances. Despite its good nutritional profile, the product's processing level limits its score.
