Summary

Lurpak butter contains a blend of butter and rapeseed oil, which is a seed oil known for its high omega-6 fatty acid content that can promote inflammation if consumed excessively. The presence of rapeseed oil, along with the processing involved in creating this spreadable butter, reduces its score compared to pure, minimally processed butters. However, it still retains some beneficial qualities from the butter and lactic culture, which provide healthy fats and probiotics.
