Limited nutritional benefit
Salted butter, about 80% milk fat.
Butter is churned cream, used for spreading on bread, frying and baking. It is about 80% fat, and half of its weight is saturated fat: a 10 g portion, about two teaspoons, has 72 kcal and 5 g of saturated fat. It supplies some vitamin A, and salted butter adds about 65 mg of sodium per 10 g, while unsalted butter has almost none.
