Great! (Abouth Target carrying the Kerrygold) I have to go to Target to get my Tazo Chai Tea in bags, so I'll look for the Kerrygold also next time I'm there.

I'm going to look for coconut oil today at Wal-Mart, but I'm not very hopeful....ours is a small one, in a small town. I'm going to give it a try, if I can find some. I'm still thinking it might have too strong of a taste to mix with butter for a spread for toast, pancakes, etc. Anyone else have anything to say about that?

There was a time when coconut was not recommended. Now it is. What does that tell you?

Well, this has to do with butter being back....if I want to continue to make my own butter spread and canola is not good to use, then what would I use? Any suggestions?

When shopping for groceries at Walmart, I can't understand why Land O Lakes butter is priced so much higher than other brands.

I sure can't tell the difference.

I don't think we get that brand in the US. I even live 30 minutes from Canada and I haven't seen it here. At nearly every regular grocery store there's unrefrigerated Armour hydrogenated lard in the Hispanic section and that's it. If you want non-hydrogenated lard you usually have to go to a Mexican grocery store or small independent butcher.

Something else that works: Google the general topic and you'll almost always find the same information in some other publication.

It's funny how the French don't die from sipping wine and eating "butter" or "pate'!
The French love their rich food....butter, sauces with cream, rich pastries, patés, etc., BUT....everything in small portions. You will never see them "supersizing" their food.
