I paused the real butter 🆚 fake spread experiment to look at the ingredients. 👇🏽Which would you pick, if you had to eat one?

1️⃣ vat-cultured butter w/ 3 ingredients
pasteurized cream
sea salt
cultures

or

2️⃣ I can’t believe it’s not butter spread
w/ 8 ingredients
water
soybean oil, palm kernel oil, palm oil
salt
lecithin
natural flavors
lactic acid
vitamins
beta carotene for color

Here’s a simple rule for a healthier choice:
Pick foods that have fewer than 5️⃣ ingredients.

The shorter list usually will mean less-processed food ☺️
which means it's more natural and better for you!
