which would you choose: organic butter vs. rBGH-free partially pastured butter?  

post #1 of 3

I'm trying to decide whether it would be better to buy Costco's organic butter or Tillamook butter, which is rBGH-free and I know the cows are out on pasture, although still fed a lot of grain I'm sure. I have no idea if the cows milked for Costco's organic butter actually eat grass or not. Both butters are about the same price. Any opinions on which would be better for us?

I think I'd go with Tilamook.

Here's my reasoning:

To get enough milk to get organic butter to all the Costco stores, I think they'd have to cut a lot of corners for organic cert. I think it's going to be more 'by the rules' organic instead of 'in the spirit of the law'.
