. Based on the French and Italian ingredients for the butter I actually bought, I can deduce that "partially hydrogenated" (synonymous for transfat) is "teilweise gehaertet" in German, and "saturated" is "gesaettigte". So, avoid those in the ingredients you find.

Also, this butter I bought will probably coat my arteries. Crap.
If your "butter" has ingredients other than butter (and maybe salt), you didn't buy butter!
