So I wonder why you consider butter god's gift while condemning another manmade product, margarine, the invention of the devil?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-419744765122775541.post-90942838268215851392011-09-11T14:21:00.851-04:002011-09-11T14:21:00.851-04:00Although I grew up mostly eating margarine I'v...Although I grew up mostly eating margarine I've only bought real butter since I left home. However it was store bought butter all these years until a year or so ago I found a local dairy which sells grassfed dairy products. They are pasteurized unfortunately, but there is no way to get around that with the current laws. At least it is grassfed and produced by a small local place. <br />I get raw milk through a cow share but I can't get cream or butter or anything else that way so this place is the next best thing.<br />According to the Nourishing Traditions book studies show that people who eat grassfed butter have less heart disease than people who eat margarine, and it's no wonder. One of the problems with the health advise given now adays is that even much of the supposedly natural food sold at the store is produced and/or processed in such a way to make it bad for you. Such as in the case of homogenized and pasteurized dairy products. Milk in its natural form is one of the healthiest things you can eat, but by the time they feed the cows grain and soy and process the dairy to make it legal to sell at the store it is turned into something no one should consume.<br />Thanks as always for your interesting blog posts!littlegreengardengalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09589962343708234410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-419744765122775541.post-60540116316967338182011-09-07T22:52:08.630-04:002011-09-07T22:52:08.630-04:00I despise margarine, and wish that I had the land ...I despise margarine, and wish that I had the land to have a milk cow of my very own. Since I don't, I have to settle for purchasing my butter from the store. I'd much rather buy butter from a farmer's wife, but none of the farms around me actually have dairy cows.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-419744765122775541.post-67560313204582281892011-09-07T20:10:05.598-04:002011-09-07T20:10:05.598-04:00I'd love to be a farm wife, but I can't se...I'd love to be a farm wife, but I can't seem to find a farm husband, lol.<br /><br />Also, when the government is held in the hands of big corporations, naturally they will change laws to benefit themselves, in the name of "your safety."Elisenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-419744765122775541.post-86629707313663628832011-09-06T14:43:30.022-04:002011-09-06T14:43:30.022-04:00Amazingly, this article reads very similarly to th...Amazingly, this article reads very similarly to this article (http://www.chengduliving.com/fake-eggs-are-no-joke/) from current news.<br />As industrialization takes over China, butter and eggs are the first to go.<br />How disgusting!<br />JJameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11363950259121845950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-419744765122775541.post-19733386145078912062011-09-05T23:30:05.468-04:002011-09-05T23:30:05.468-04:00As we recently acquired our very own house cow, an...As we recently acquired our very own house cow, and I have been making beautiful fresh butter, I love this post and totally agree with you. Just because new technology makes something possible, doesn't mean its a good idea.
