Breakdown

Not fully ranked yet

Sainsbury's Buttersoft butter scores 33/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Sainsbury's Buttersoft butter lists 4 ingredients, starting with Rapeseed Oil, Water, Salt (1.3%) and Butter (Cows' Milk) (60%). Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 33/100 Sainsbury's Buttersoft butter scores worse than most butter & cream we have scored. A higher-scoring option in butter & cream is Simple Truth Organic Half & Half Milk & Cream at 100/100.
