The Vancouver Sun featured research from UBC’s Okanagan campus that found Canadian butter has the highest omega-6 fatty acid content compared with butter produced in 13 countries.
These findings likely apply to all Canadian dairy products, according to biologist and researcher Sanjoy Ghosh.
“Canadian butter had the worst omega-6 to omega-3 ratio, it’s double what you see in French butter,” said Ghosh. “Our butter really sucks. There’s no other way to spin it.”
