What’s the difference in the ingredients list?

Yup, they reduced the size and increased the price to try compensate for the tariffs. They have a huge market in America and want to keep it. So they are hitting us with skrinkflation.

Butter is just cream (preferably double) mixed so much it separates solids (butter) from liquid (buttermilk). Then some cold water to wash the blob until the water runs clear. Maybe sprinkle in some salt. That’s pure butter, making the spreadable stuff is different. But times are tough, prices are gouging our wallets. If you’ve got a mixer you can make the best butter, its flavour enhanced by the fact you’re sticking it to big corporations

In France, if a company shrinks their package contents they have to say it on the box. Think this would be good practice everywhere. ⭐Now with 12% Less! ⭐

Who cares how much it costs as long as they don’t degrade the quality.
The real problem is when the quality of the ingredients is reduced.

Companies selling in the U.S. will raise prices globally to spread costs. I was surprised!
I assumed this would make their products less competitive but then I remembered — the other companies without access will just jack their prices. Since these brands are market leaders.
The tariff is a grift that keeps on giving… to corporations not consumers.
