4 tbsp of butter?! I don't recall it being that much.

Edit : just checked and in Canada it calls for 1 tbsp. Apparently the American version doesn't include real cheddar or butter in the mix, interesting!

I would be willing to send you some Canadian KD without reciprocation. I like ours better. Tried the US stuff when I was in CT. THANKS BUT NO THANKS. I can probably ship it from CT after I import it through US Pre-Clearance at Pearson Intl. next month. I used to do the same with Cherry Coke and Vanilla Coke, until they finally started selling it here.

Which reminds me... I need to stock up on Foxon Park Birch Beer while I'm in CT next month. That stuff is virtually impossible to get here in Canada.

That seems like a bunch of trouble on your part. I wish I could send you the beer, but I'm in CA and I've never seen that beer.

It wasn't always 1 Tbps of butter. I am 100% sure that it used to be 3 Tbps of butter in Canada. The recipe definitely changed at some point.

I think your right it called for a 1/4 cup at some point.

I also only recall one tablespoon and specifically margarine, it even recommends adding milk usually. I didn’t find this out until, still as a kid, I would go over my cousins and they would add margarine and milk. My mom had never done that, I later realized it was because she was lazy.

I would expect the Canadian version to be the best since they invented it and love it most. If Kraft tried to pass off the cheaper version on y'all there would be rioting in the streets.

That’s the ‘classic prep’, aka, the tasty prep. They have the healthy version on the other side that uses less milk and butter

Tbsp might be different in Canada vs USA, or maybe it’s metric system sabotage.. something smells fishy

I believe at some point they added the milk whey and dried butter/cheese to the sauce packet, at least in Canada, in America I believe they still do not use cheddar but just dried whey.
