noob question: does butter count as dairy?

[spesmilitis]

Does it? I'm sure it doesn't contain lactose, but what about the other things that give people milk allergies.

 

[Warboss Alex]

Butter is more or less all fat.. and I've yet to find anyone allergic to fat.

I'm allergic to fat chicks. Does that count?

 

[wolf116]

lol. What about creme?? I just cut that out but I like it in my soup

 

[Throttle]

butter is cream that has been churned.

in US supermarkets, only "heavy whipping cream" is just the cream. anything else ("light whipping cream," "half and half," etc.) typically contains some proportion of skim milk or the equivalent. not sure how stuff gets labeled elsewhere
