The butter to avoid are butters that have added fillers, oils and artificial flavors like many spreadable butters or blends like Imperial spread and some Challenge, Bunge butters.

These butters should be avoided as they compromise flavor and texture and can be less healthy than other butters.

Even some brands of butters like Kerrygold or Great Value butters and unsalted versions for baking can lack sufficient butterfat or use skim milk.

Instead you should opt for butters that are high fat, grass fed or cultured European style butters for superior and best nutrition and taste.

However Kerrygold butter does have some healthy butters that are grass fed and organic and not as processed.

The healthiest butters are butters that are grass fed, organic and minimally processed which can include Organic Valley, Vital Farms and even some Kerrygold butters.

These butters have better omega-3s and CLA due to pasture grazing.

Other good healthiest butters are Truly Grass Fed and Kirkland Pasture Raised butters for nutrient density.

And for lower saturated fat spreads, butters like Challenge Avocado Oil Butter is good.

When choosing healthiest butters you should look for butters that have simple ingredients, no additives and pasture raised dairy for optimal nutritional benefits.

Grass fed butter is more nutrient rich than conventional butters.

Benefits of grass fed butter are higher levels of omga-3 fatty acids, which are known to reduce inflammation in the body.

The healthiest butters at Walmart for example are Country Crock Plant Butter which can be olive oil/avocado, Smart Balance Spreads, or grass fed and organic butters like Kerrygold or some store brands, which are good for lower saturated fat and more healthy fats.
