Shop keepers in the US state of Wisconsin are facing possible jail time for selling Kerrygold Butter.

The law, that is 40 years old, means that all butter used for commercial purposes needs to be put before a panel of experts to grade it.

But, because Kerrygold is made in Ireland, it does not go through the same regulatory controls as many products made in the US.

However, according to local news outlet TMJ4, having a high-fat diet (Paleo/Caveman) is popular around that state, and many residents aren't happy about the outdated law.

Jean Smith, who lives in Wisconsin, told reporters that she has to smuggle Kerrygold to her home via cooler bags.

“I feel suspicious. Who are you trying to protect here? Are you protecting the consumers, are you protecting Wisconsin dairies?”

She added: “I want to please ask whoever it is that’s preventing me from getting butter in our stores here to stop it, to stop it.

Anyone who is caught with the glorious butter could face a $500 fine or a jail time of three months. Ouch.

She’s joked about weight loss, gotten real with her stretch marks and has even blocked Piers Morgan on Twitter – yes, it’s safe to say there are many reasons Chrissy Teigen is already our ultimate girl crush.

But now the 30-year-old model has gone and given us Irish one HUGE reason to love her forever more as she has publicly declared that our butter is “awesome”.

Amid script reading and cookery books, the mother of one’s latest Snapchat story had us rushing for the replay button as we noticed one very familiar product pop onto screens.

That’s right ladies, in a snap captioned “not an ad just really awesome” Chrissy Teigen herself photographed a big ole tub of Kerrygold butter.

Naturally the star’s snap has sent her Irish fans into a tizzy, with one Twitter user summing us all up by writing “CHRISSY TEIGEN USES KERRYGOLD BUTTER UGH QUEEN” in celebration.

 

 

So next time you’re layering that golden goodness onto your toast, be sure to remember that that butter has been Chrissy approved.

Here in Ireland we know our food is second to none, but over in the US, we're mainly known for Guinness and stew.

So we were pleasantly surprised to see an Irish kitchen favourite getting a shout-out from none other than Kourtney Kardashian.

The mum-of-three finally launched her official website and app this week – a full three months after her sisters did the same – and one of the recipes contains a very familiar brand name.

If you plan on making Kourt's Krispies (basically glorified Rice Krispie shapes), you better have some Irish butter to hand, because the reality star specifically stipulates the use of Kerrygold butter in her ingredients list.

Amazing!

Of course, Kerrygold isn't just an Irish staple – it's also available across Europe and the US.

A spokesperson for the butter's manufacturer, Ornua, said the company was "delighted" to see Kerrygold "making its way into Kourtney Kardashian’s kitchen."

As well as recipes, Kourtney promises fans will receive a glimpse into her life via her new app, with personal journal entries, decorating tips and more all available to those who sign up.
