Toltepeceno Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 The Kirkland butter we always use, great butter. Unsalted is mainly used here. In this area you do not even see salted butter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedros Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 How much does a membership at Sam's and Costco cost at lakeside? I am moving to Ajijic in August and wonder if I should purchase the membership here in Arizona or wait until I get there. 450. http://www.costco.com.mx/portal/dt?JSPTabContainer.setSelected=JSPTabContainer%2FMembresiasContainer&last=false Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elrich Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 I know Costco can order in SALTED butter as I have asked twice while I was shopping but they haven't gotten around to doing it. While you are there, (if you miss being able to buy salted butter at a reasonable price), why not stop by and ask to see the manager. If enough of us ask for it, I'm sure they will stock it for us.

HelperGuy Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 I would be very happy to have CostCo salted. Pancho used to carry it when CostCo did. Perhaps someone here (Toltepeceno?) could offer an explanation of why unsalted is about all you can buy in Mexican brands. Or, conversely, it is just a NOB thing? I'm not familiar with European preferences... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not familiar with European preferences... Europeans generally use unsalted butter. Most higher-end cookbooks specifiy unsalted butter in their ingredients lists. Salted butter is the preference in the USA. If you want salted butter for your morning toast, use unsalted butter with a to-your-taste sprinkle of salt. Kirkland unsalted butter is truly wonderful.

elrich Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 I believe that if enough people request that Costco stock salted butter they will do it!!!!!!!! Please stop in to see the manager when you go shopping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelperGuy Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 Adding salt to unsalted butter is just not the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailor Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 You could always buy salted Lurpak from Denmark at Super Lake. If they don't have it now, Pancho will order it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelperGuy Posted July 7, 2012 Report Share Posted July 7, 2012 SL usually has two imported brands, Lurpak and Anchor. And that is what most of us use, I'm sure. I now use the CostCo unsalted butter for cooking, and save the salted Anchor for putting on bread or steamed veg, that kind of thing. In England, they just always used salted, according to my favorite Brit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
