Comment on Butter made from carbon tastes like the real thing, gets backing from Bill Gates
tal@lemmy.today 21 hours agoMaybe the manufacturer is in New Zealand and the French-Canadian people are the guys who package and sell it or something. Dunno, just did a quick skim of their site.

I doubt it, I think the Miraka plant is produces mostly primary products not the secondary stuff.

Yeah well… I never liked Savör products too much. They go out if their way with all their branding and claims, but you can get very tasty butter from local creameries at similar prices, without the need to ship it frozen halfway across the globe. Especially with milk sourced from the eastern townships or the Saguenay region. And Quebec (where Savör is operating) runs on 100% hydro power, which is equal or better to geothermal. So whatever Savör is gaining from the Miraka plant, is lost on the need to import basically.

I get that, why import stuff that you produce locally…
I try to never get imported food products that we make here… It just seems wasteful.
