There is a small percentage of water. For example, Plugra butter (AKA
Plus Gras or more fat) is favoured by patissiers in the US as it is
similar to the butter used in France.

It almost certainly means that it has been cultured akin to yoghurt.
This adds to the flavour.
I took some what we called "farm butter" back to uni and my city
dwelling friends thought it was "off". They had never had cultured
butter before.

Don't bother to try to teach "Mr. Kuthe" anything about cooking or
ingredients. Plugra, Kerry Gold, etc. all have a higher butterfat
content than regular butter sold in the US.

Usually between 80-85% butterfat, depending on brand.

Yes... it's easy enough to make but takes 3 days of wait time,
according to this.

We frequent a nearby restaurant that puts cultured butter on the table
and "off" or "spoiled" exactly the reaction I've read in a lot of
reviews. To me, it's more like lightly salted. There's no accounting
for taste. IMO - if they don't like it, they can always ask for olive
oil.

relevant he has to sneer.

News for sw. You are not universally respected or loved. You are a pain in

But, he is adored on Facebook. Steve leads that bunch and they drool and swoon and bow and scrape and genuinely admire his works. He especially likes to do furrin stuff and especially Oriental foods. A Royal potentate for sure, although the great unwashed can only hope to achieve his grandeur and glory some day as they view him from their lumpy chairs in front of their greasy monitors.

As I recall from my days on my folks farm, we would make butter from cream in the summer which may have been around a bit too long. Despite being cooled, some of this cream was what I would call "ripe". Naturally cultured, the cream produced wonderful butter with a unique taste. The buttermilk was wonderful to drink as well.
People who live in the city have no clue about what country folk produce for themselves from so-called sub-standard food sources. We were all healthy and suffered no ill-effects.

When our town dwelling relatives came to visit they must have thought we were living in the garden of Eden. Actually, we lived and ate well every day of the year and thought this was nothing out of the ordinary.

This is very true, we were all very healthy children growing up on a ranch
and usually only saw doctors for things like stitches etc., and we were
eating just about everything, no outdates there, and no ill effects either.

Hopefully they will let her continue. Several years ago there was a
woman here who sold unpasteurized milk, we loved it. I was making
Devonshire cream again! They shut her down despite the fact we all
told them we were well aware of what the consequences might be.
