I see butter didn't make the list. Butter quality has gone to shit in many brands recently, and some of it tastes like it was mixed with or is wholly pure margarine. Kerrigold was sued recently over their claim that their butter is from pasture raised cows.

Edit: "has been" = was

This is a disingenuous comment.

I just Googled the Kerrygold thing. A single person sued, making claims. Suit dismissed by judge four years ago.

Well, now that does seem pretty misleading on Kerrygold’s part. Very similar to the “from Italy” essentially meaning “spent a nonzero amount of time within Italy’s borders” in some cases, as the author called out.

Likewise Kerrygold’s cows are “grass-fed” insofar as they’ve ingested grass at some point in their lives… I think it merits the criticism
