Lets see now,,,We have shortage on some drugs,,,shortage on coffee,,,shortage on butter (real butter),,,,and a shortage on peanuts. What is going to be next item on the list. Something is not right here. I smell a rat.

Butter is made from cream which is only a small proportion of the milk.
There may be enough milk to supply the milk, but not to make the butter.

will we see olive oil spike as well? after all greece and italy are i inderstand major producers. if the price of that spikes, then it would be safe to assume this has been orchestrated to manipulate the price and supply to squeeze maximum profit for reveneue streams back to the respective broke countries.

Reasons quoted is shortage of server space - looks like there's shortages everywhere. Not just butter!

Some good olive oil, anyone?

I think I read somewhere that even olive oil is bad if you cook with too high temperatures, something with high temperatures and bad molecules/fats forming or something like that.

I hate to relate this to an episode of The Nanny, but my memory is too good, a few years ago I was watching a rerun of an insignificant sitcom called The Nanny, in the episode The Nanny's mom told her daughter she was on a new no-carb diet, a stick of butter was then revealed and her intentions of eating the butter alone without toast (in an attempt to lose weight) was what triggered the pre-recorded laugh-track.
If this is seriously the same line of thinking Norway and Finland are having I do feel sorry for you, the no-carb diet resulted in probably more than a few heart-attacks.

Same thing is happening in Finland. They claim that this is because there is new trend called "Low-carbohydrate diet". That diet consumes lot of butter and more than we produce.

All I can say is that if there is no butter AND no coffee, I certainly HOPE that NIBRU or ELENIN comes straight for earth and destroys it right away. I can't imagine a world without butter and coffee...
