From Manufacturer: Red Feather Shelf Life -- There is no Expiration Date written in stone because the shelf life depends largely on the storage conditions (temperature, humidity, altitude, sunlight/shade, etc.). We do guarantee a shelf life of two years however, the actual shelf life of the butter will ultimately be determined by the storage conditions (temperature being the main factor) and the seal on the can remaining intact and therefore protecting the butter from the introduction of oxygen."

Healthy fatty acids
Cholesterol
CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid)
Contains anti properties
Butter contains both short and medium-chain fatty acids which support the immune system, protect the stomach from gastrointestinal infections and boost metabolism. Grass-fed butter also contains essential fatty acids Omega 3 and 6.
The role of cholesterol in our body is tragically misunderstood. However, the diet-heart hypothesis has been proven false over and over again.
Grass-fed butter contains high levels of CLA which help to inhibit different types of cancer and promotes the body to store muscle instead of fat.
This help to fight against pathogenic microorganisms living inside the digestive tract
Vitamin E helps to prevent free-radical damage, is required for the proper functioning of many organs in the body and improves skin health. Vitamin D is essential for the absorption of calcium. Vitamin K2 is essential for the body to help utilize minerals, including calcium, protecting against tooth decay. All the vitamins found in butter help to support a healthy metabolism and balance hormones.
Some of you may be trying to watch your weight and be very hesitant to begin adding butter back into your diet. You don’t have to be concerned because the fatty acids found in butter are not stored as fat in the body. Instead they promote muscle storage and are used by vital organs in your body.
Butter provides our bodies with cholesterol that is essential for healthy cellular function. It also plays a huge role in the brain and nervous system development, acting as a healing agent in the body, especially when stress and inflammation are present. As you can see butter is truly a superfood!
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life?
Canned food has a shelf life of at least two years from the date of processing. Canned food retains its safety and nutritional value well beyond two years, but it may have some variation in quality, such as a change of color and texture. Canning is a high-heat process that renders the food commercially sterile. Food safety is not an issue in products kept on the shelf or in the pantry for long periods of time. In fact, canned food has an almost indefinite shelf life at moderate temperatures (75° F and below)
Believe it or not, but I heard about this butter from audiobook called “ Going Home “ by A American. If you haven’t read or heard this book. You need to. This butter is great. I need to get more.

Dented but delicious
I bought this for the sole purpose of long term storage. The box arrived split with cans visible. Small little piece of bubble wrap did nothing to protect the cans. Four of the six cans were dented- 3 badly dented and on seam!
I immediately reached out to Safecastle and they quickly responded by asking me to send pictures. I sent the pictures and currently am waiting for resolution. I will update again when this is resolved.
I did open one to taste since it was dented anyways and it was the most delicious butter I’ve ever tasted!

Believe it or not, but I heard about this butter from audiobook called “ Going Home “ by A American. If you haven’t read or heard this book. You need to. This butter is great. I need to get more.
Each can was bubble wrapped with care. No dents! This was bought for long term storage. Of course I had to open one to sample. Excellent and spreads easily.
The Butter is still my favorite though!
A necessary and valuable tool in my survival toolbox
The Safecastle Mountain Essentials Grain Mill is a well made, dependable, heavy duty tool for any kitchen that plans to remain operational in a world that offers no guarantees. While a mortar and pestle will take care of the smaller ingredients, the Mountain Essentials Grain Mill can take care of the whole loaf and will grind the makings for the cup of coffee when the dishes are done.
Love this machine and am considering it one of my better long term planning investments.
Always a quality product, and can't beat it on the case sale prices. The 14oz can is just the right size for a small family meal, and easy to add a second can if needed, without waste. Product is simply meat ad a little salt, ready to be seasoned or prepared in a multiple of ways.
