No Name butter any good?
Has anyone tried No Name butter lately? How does it compare to Neilson's butter? I use butter mainly for toast and pancake.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Why wouldn't you buy it once to try it rather than rely on strangers to tell you about the taste. I mean, it's not really a budget buster one way or the other.redflagcat wrote: ↑ Has anyone tried No Name butter lately? How does it compare to Neilson's butter?

I have tried looking, where and what does the number look like?raymondly wrote: ↑ Check out the establishment number on it. Compare to others beside it and you have the manufacturer - and the exact same butter. Depending on where in Canada you are, it is made by several different manufacturers. Some use a batch process (much better flavour IMHO) and some are continuous.

What's the harm in asking, and potentially even learn a thing or two about butter or establishment numbers? On the other hand, why bother to respond, if all you are doing is admonish the OP for a simple question?ichibansan wrote: ↑ Why wouldn't you buy it once to try it rather than rely on strangers to tell you about the taste.

That is true but most of the time no-name/generic brands of foods don't use the same quality of formulation ingredients as the name brand. People buying no-name products accept that in exchange for a cheaper price.GoodFellaz wrote: ↑ the no name butter or store brand butter all comes from the same factory as the brand name butter.

What if it says its natural, 100% from cow's milk, and has pictures of happy cows on sunny pasture? I bet thats worse the extra cost.GoodFellaz wrote: ↑ big deal, basic butter is just fine, why the heck would someone want to pay $6-7 for a stick of "Premium" butter when the basic one is just as good? most people wont notice the difference in taste for the extra 3-4 bucks you pay. Butter should be just that, buter, nothing else, no premium, no extravagant butter, just plain ol butter

Where did you get this info? I’m interested in learning more about this.GoodFellaz wrote: ↑the no name butter or store brand butter all comes from the same factory as the brand name butter. I think the brand name butter is GAY Lea or something like that? so if that case the store brand or no name should also be GAY Lea but with a different wrapper/packaging

Depends on where you are. Out west, there seem to be only two large dairies. Saputo which bought the Dairyland brand, Parmalat (Beatrice, Lactantia) and Agropur which as grown its co-op to include Lucerne (former Safeway inhouse brand/supplier?), Island Farm and Natrel. In all likelihood, all private label dairy products come from one of these.Canoes4Fun wrote: ↑ Where did you get this info? I’m interested in learning more about this.
