Creating this blog is my ultimate decision for how to handle the ongoing interest in how I have prepared food for backpacking over the years. For a long time my thinking was stuck on the idea of a book, but this topic is too dynamic for that rigid of a format. On the other hand, I didn't want to provide all this information completely free of charge.
Therefore, this blog will have advertisements showing. You are free to ignore them or not. They do help me in a small way.
I collect no information from visitors to this page.

Product Review- Molly McButter


Product Review

Molly McButter is a powdered butter product that can add flavor to dried meals. Because dried foods need to be low fat (fat will go rancid), this product restores some of the taste that fat provides.

Molly McButter

I recently was unable to get Butter Buds and have tried Molly McButter. It comes in a sprinkle-top jar and is about $2.00 for 2 oz.

Things I Do Like:

The texture and flavor are good.

It combines well with dry ingredients.

It is the least expensive of these products.

Things I Don't Like:

It may form clumps when rehydrating.

The package says it must be refrigerated after opening. I have not tested this.

Other Products in This Line:
Butter Buds in foil packets

Ingredients:

Maltodextrin, salt, butter, tricalcium phosphate, whey, nonfat dry milk, natural flavor, sunflower oil, annato, tumeric, modified corn starch, silicon dioxide

Alternatives:

Butter Buds

Other bulk Butter Powders (I have not tried other products, and most come in a large container)
