I finally caved and had to ask.

    Well of COURSE the butter is in the Beer & Wine aisle. I mean where ELSE would you expect to find butter? In the DAIRY section? It is to laugh.

      The beer&wine section starts there. The portion until the sign is part of another section, that OP never bothered to include in the pic. Presumably the dairy section.

      Put another way: if you’re coming from the beer&wine section, the sign probably says “dairy”.

      Either that or the store people just fucked up.

        This is a Safeway, and those signs are at the ends of the aisle, so no, he didn’t just conveniently crop out more aisle that says dairy. The dairy section is usually open air chillers, not closed refrigeration units like this.

        Some Safeway stores are ancient and too small to carry all the product people expect to be able to find these days, so they put stuff in nutty locations like this from time to time.

          Ah, gotcha. I’m not familiar with this chain, so I wrongly extrapolated from what others do where I’m from. So they’re just randomly putting butter next to beer then I guess.
