Blended butter
Sir,—Since we will be obliged to buy the butter which has been mixed with the American surplus, or go without, it seems to me that it should be sold at a reduced price. ’Clearly it differs greatly from the pure New Zealand butter which New Zealand housewives have been used to buying over the years and since cooks throughout the country, many highly proficient, now have failures with cakes, etc., for the first time, it is obviously, because the blended butter is inferior. Therefore, if we must have it, not only should it be labelled blended or “C” for contaminated but also the cost to the consumer should be less than our pure butter.—Yours, etc., (MRS) SUZANNE COSHAM. August 19, 1982.
[The Dairy Board has announced that it will label the butter to show it has been blended.—Editor]
