No, from apparently RT owned AP news:
https://apnews.com/article/europe-butter-prices-40fe30965677...
"Across the 27-member European Union, the price of butter rose 19% on average from October 2023 to October 2024, including by 49% in Slovakia, and 40% in Germany and the Czech Republic, according to figures provided to The Associated Press by the EU’s executive arm. Reports from individual countries indicate the cost has continued to go up in the months since."
Comment from a Polish official:
"She and others also cite higher energy costs from Russia’s war in Ukraine as impacting milk production."

Aaaand, once the root comment was supported by an unassailable link, it was flagged so people can no longer see it but they can just read the snarky Twitter reply. Democracy at work.

No one can afford the post Russia sanctions (and post Nordstream hybrid warfare terrorism) electricity prices.
The politicians watch gleefully and double down.
In the EU people do generally not avoid a Tesla just because of Elon's Twitter activities (some do, but not enough to make that kind of an impact). It is the economy. Supermarkets put up notices that butter has delivery and price problems due to the energy crisis, They are using that term explicitly.
