KerryGold probably making half the bill, extortion, I tell ye!
I do have to say, JD Honey is delicious… can easily drink that on the rocks.
Bleh! Try some makers mark straight up or with ice. It’s still sweet without that corn syrup taste
Makers is so insanely overrated. If you’re gonna spend that money anyways, any of these is a huge upgrade from makers:
- Mitchers
- 1792
- Four Roses
- Basil Haydens
Ha, no worries. I have a decent selection I’m currently working on:
Blegh, but then it tastes like makers.
How about four roses small batch instead and we forget the sweet.
Real men drink Old Granddad BiB. As a bonus it will make the best Old Fashioned you will ever have.
Try American Honey, I definitely give it an edge over JD!
I can confirm whiskey, coke, butter and a 12-pack of beers is all I need for the week.
But is the butter salted?
Yes. The unsalted version of that brand has silver packaging
Weird, I just had to do this with $65 and ended up getting it to $62 as the total. For a family of 4 for 4 days. It was hard and not the best options, but it worked.
I like those groceries…except the soda is bad for you and expensive /wasting money. Ditch the soda for water which mixes with whiskey just fine. Also Coors is like making love in a canoe.
I have seen someone grating cold butter and put it into a bowl with whiskey. Leave that in the fridge for a few days. The whiskey is supposed to taste better, and the butter was used for a whiskey buttercream cake.
Is the butter there to get the taste of the other three out of your mouth?
What a waste of good butter.
We all need to make sacrifices. They should have gotten a handle of whiskey and drink water.
I don’t get it, you eat better with a couple dozens of eggs
I am getting $15 dollar 3.5 grams of weed. You are doing it wrongly. Well weed tax but still.
At least you won’t die from dehydration
Look, I enjoy good butter, too, but are you cooking with it? You probably won’t notice a difference if you switch to a generic.
Double blind test ‘em - fun and enlightening
Everyday, I watch as we stray further from God.
Idk man that Irish butter pretty damn good
You should try the Beef and Milk. Free Range, grass fed.
I dunno, that looks like the USA and their butter sucks, man. It’s not even yellow, and they sell it in “sticks”. I was so glad to find Kerrygold there.
That’s decent stuff that I use on the regular.
Regular butter for cooking
Kerrygold salted for spreading
'tis the only way
Do people really see kerrygold as a premium option? I haven’t bought butter in a long time, but I always saw kerrygold as overpriced mass market shit.
Well, we’re talking about mass market, supermarket butters in the first place here. Nobody is comparing these to boutique shop butters.
Beyond that, for me personally, I’ve always considered Kerrygold to be a very decent, better than Land O’ Lakes or store brand butter, but I have a preference for either Plugrà or Lurpak in my supermarket-available butter. Finlandia is also very good.
Hmh. Maybe I phrased that wrong. The one I had is also mass market, in the sense that they’re in quite a few supermarkets in several regions of one country.
Kerrygold is just ludicrously mass market, being available in a lot of supermarkets in over 100 countries.
Prolly is. But I haven’t found much better at the stores around me.
Lol, clearly you haven’t been shopping at budget places in the US. The competition is Land O Lakes, “I can’t believe it’s not butter”, or store brand.
Where are you buying your butter, and what brand?
Well, I’ve been vegan for years, but I usually had this stuff, I think.

I do. I’ve had it on my bagels and it’s noticably tastier than with regular store brand butter. I usually don’t get it because it’s like 4x the price.
Kerrygold is good, but really good butter is on another level.
Good butter straight from a dairy farm is super dangerous though. You can suddenly find yourself standing in your kitchen, no memory of the last 45 minutes, the fridge door open, a greasy knife in your hand, breadcrumbs all over the floor, and half the butter gone. Gotta be careful with that stuff.
Given the rest of the grocery list, I think it is unlikely that cooking will be involved.
I must say, the butter is the only one these I would actually buy. Even then, only if I was going to make toast or something. I use store brand butter for baking.
Can’t even afford to be an alcoholic to forget about your money problems anymore in this economy
Unironically. Half the appeal of booze has historically been that its cheap.
I kinda wonder how much of the decline of high school/college drinking has to do with sticker shock.
I mean I’m 20, when I have parties with friends (all my age/1-2y younger) we just split the costs. 5€ each max. And we all have a good time (or throw up, because some of my friends aren’t very aware of their limits lol)
Its so expensive to go out now in any city, have to pregame for anything, not spending 30$ on a shot
Yep, it’s very easy and cheap to produce alcohol, the only reason it’s expensive now is due to countries adding high excise taxes and the like to alcoholic drinks
Margins on alcohol sales are fairly high, especially with high rates of industry consolidation over the last decade.
Retail alone collects a 20-30% vig on well standard hard liquor, for instance. Distributors can add another 40%.
The Gray Goose sticker price of $30 for 750mL includes an excise tax of $2.40 So around 8%, by comparison.
