Great flavor and more spreadable when cold than US butters, possibly because of a higher fat content.

Tue Sep 30 13:18:11 -0700 2008 4072652 11104 dolores 1 4073203 I find all Land o' Lakes dairy products better tasting than the other national brands and often the best value for price, too. Their butters are first class and their cottage cheese better than all others I've tried. Tue Sep 30 17:45:21 -0700 2008 4069157 59818 Nukedli 2 4073918 Cabot is on par with Lond o Lakes... Wed Oct 01 06:22:22 -0700 2008 4073203 24648 Sean 1 4074201 I always buy unsalted butter. Sometimes the store brand...other times Cabot if it's on sale. Wed Oct 01 08:24:04 -0700 2008 4069157 63634 rizzo0904 1 4078070 Pulgra is absolutely the best. I buy unsalted but it comes in salted as well. For a real treat, I have in the freezer fattorie garofalo's burro di bufala (butter made from italian buffalo milk) which is incredably rich and a great finish to a pan sauce.
