Yeah. I don't understand gelatinous being a complaint. Cloudy, sure, whatever. Not gelatinous.

Weird. I've never seen that at any of our nationwide chains.

The fact that salt is a preservative isn't a bad thing. It prevents the fats from oxidizing, and keeps a stronger flavour, so that it doesn't actually matter whether or not the butter is older.

Saltiness is an important component of flavour. Most food, even desserts, taste bland without the proper amount of salt. It doesn't mask flavours, it complements them. You can almost always taste and adjust your seasoning, but for home cooking under-salting is much more common than over-salting.

Besides, most of the time the amount of salt salted butter adds to a recipe is pretty inconsequential (really close to a 1/4 tsp per stick) and easily convertible anyway.

Sorry for being a doodie, but I could happily live with just salted butter for the rest of my life.

I am from Canada, but I live in Quebec and haven't noticed the problem.

But fellow Canadian! Have you heard of salewhale.ca? My girlfriend and I use it for groceries. It is the best. You can set an alert for butter, and buy it in bulk when it is on sale and put it in the freezer.

Salted butter is actually great for almost everything that isn't entirely butter.

If you're making cookies? Just put slightly less salt. Biscuits? Just put slightly less salt. Pie crust? Slightly less salt. Most people don't use enough salt in their cooking, which is the real crime here.

I had a roommate who used a bunch of good toilet paper, and when it was his turn to buy, he cheaped out and bought the shitty toilet paper. He pretty much did that with every shared purchase.

We ended up having a hiding spot for the good stuff, and just let him use his shitty stuff.
