AUSTRALIAN BUTTER PRAISED
“NO EQUAL ON LONDON MARKET” (Received May 18, 10.25 p.m.) SYDNEY, May 18. According to Mr W. Laffan, a senior officer of the Government dairy branch Australian (“Kangaroo”) butter has no equal, both in flavour and body. “It is undoubtedly the best manufactured butter arriving on the British market,” he told a conference of Australian dairy factory managers and secretaries at Sydney. Mr Laffan gave his impressions while acting as dairy officer in London from 1935 to 1937. He said importers and buyers of Australian butter had expressed themselves as very pleased with the sustained efforts of the Australian manufacturers to produce sound uniform butter. Mr Laffan added that opinions were sometimes expressed that Australia should try to develop a Danish or Continental flavour. Long years of experience, however, had taught him, that full-flavoured lactic acid butter was never a keeper.” The fact was well known that Danish butter did not store well.
