Summary

This butter is primarily made from pasteurized cream, which is a high-quality ingredient, but it includes natural flavoring, which lacks transparency and can be concerning for those with allergies or sensitivities. Despite being a simple product, it is classified as ultra-processed due to its processing level, which limits its maximum score. The absence of harmful additives like seed oils or artificial preservatives is a positive aspect.
