Summary

This butter is primarily made from pasteurized cream, which is a high-quality ingredient, but the inclusion of 'natural flavoring' introduces some uncertainty due to its vague nature. Despite being a simple product, it is classified as ultra-processed, which limits its score potential. The lack of harmful additives or seed oils is positive, but the processing level prevents a higher rating.
