    Kerrygold priced themselves out, it’s $12 for 4 sticks here. I can get a pound and a half of Amish roll butter for less than that.

      Kerrygold is more expensive in my state at the local Costco, unless discounts are in play. About $16 IIRC. I either buy the cheaper but nearly identical Kirkland version, or stock up on sticks when the price is down. Got something like 10 cartons in the freezer. Sucks to pay $160 now, but the economy is going to make it at least $200 when the crops stop yielding much food.

      Due to the Hormuz crisis, it ain’t just gas, but also fertilizer for fields, that has been limited. That means less feed for the cattle, and everyone else who needs to eat something.

      These are troubled times. 😒
