Guest guest Posted November 8, 2003 Report Share Posted November 8, 2003 I am wondering the same thing. So far the WFN ghee is the best tasting but I wondered who it's made by. It doesn;t say X factor on the jars and I did heat it a few times. Elainie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 >Is the butter oil from Radient Life....Raw ghee?? Del Good question. Here is what I know: Radiant Life gets the X-Factor butter oil from a place in Nebraska called " Green Pastures Products " (website http://208.154.155.183:8013/). Quote: It takes over 8 pounds of raw cream to make one 8 ounce jar of oil. We know that 8 pounds of cream (about 1 gallon) would make a lot more than 8 ounces of clarified butter (ghee) so Ghee and X-factor oil can't be the same. in a previous post says Ghee is %100 pure fat. So this is a mystery. I emailed Mr. Wetzel (wetz@...) of Green Pastures and asked for a nutritional breakdown but did not hear back. I don't suspect anything nefarious but I am confused if raw/cooked Ghee is %100 oil without any impurities, what has been done to make X-Factor oil that isn't just essentially clarified butter or cold processed Ghee, which can be found for 1/10th the price from WF or even cheaper made at home. It is also confusing that no one else is makeing X-Factor oil, one would think at that price there would be competition from small farms everywhere assuming it is just simply centrifuged butter as WAP describes. Green Pastures does say it is from spring fed %100 grass fed cows from the rich earth of Nebraska. I hope someone from Radiant or Green Pastures will enlighten the details on the diffrence between clarified butter (centrifuge or hot processed) and the x-factor product. -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 Thank You ! I sure hope we get an answer! So far we know 3 companies are making butter oil, that is centrifused. Green Pastures, Radiant Life and WFN. Are there any more? Are they all x-factor oil or is only Radiant Life x-factor oil and the others are ghee? ~Del > > >Is the butter oil from Radient Life....Raw ghee?? Del > > Good question.
