What You Should Know

You'd usually find this in the refrigerated dairy aisle or on a brunch table—perfect for spreading on warm toast or finishing roasted vegetables. It gives an indulgent, slightly upscale and wholesome vibe: Irish butter blended with avocado oil for a creamier, more spreadable texture. The short ingredient list (pasteurized cream, avocado oil, water, salt) points to a deliberately processed product to change texture and fat profile rather than a heavily ultra-processed formulation full of additives.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

This is a processed food (NOVA 3): composed of whole-food ingredients (cream, oil, salt) that have been combined and altered (pasteurization, blending with avocado oil and water) to change texture and spreadability, but it lacks the multiple industrial additives typical of ultra-processed (NOVA 4) products.
