Does the other side of the sign say the same thing?
At least you know it's somewhere in the fridge section, yah?
But I'm sure everyone has done that while looking for something and it is not cool.
Problem is, there were like 8 different refrigerated sections. Milks and juices. Dairy, including cheeses and yogurts (which is where I was fully expecting it to be and which I went back to multiple times). Meats. Desserts and puddings. Salsas, dips and such. And several others. I think I just walked by the alcohol aisle repeatedly thinking, "Well, I know it's not down that one".
You'd be surprised. I work at a store with only 2 refrigerated aisles and people still can't figure out where the eggs are. Even though they take up half the aisle and are labeled on the sign above. I swear people don't know how to shop.
Just to add to the confusion, in Germany eggs wouldn't be in the refrigerated aisle.
To add even further confusion, in Australia some stores have eggs in the fridge, and some don't
shop smart! shop S-Mart!
Ahh yes, beer and butter, classic pairing
Also the butter in the photo seem so big, huge, kilos of butter per package!
The real butter is in the case with the Kerrygold. American Butter (I see Clover, Land o' Lakes, and Challenge, for example) is typically sold in one-pound boxes of four 8-tablespoon sticks. About ½ kilo in all.
Kerrygold, being more expensive because imported from Ireland, is usually sold as one 8-ounce slab, the equivalent of two sticks.
What you see in the tubs is either margarine, a mix of butter+oil, or whipped butter (adding air to make it softer , go farther, and seem like more).
Beer. Butter. Battlestar Galactica.

Beerstar Galactica, who hasn't heared of that epos !!!
One more episode. We have time, right?
Those large vats are just margarine, so much cheaper than butter.
Thank you for clarifying.
Aw ghee whiz
And much less flavour.
Nah they have more flavor, but it's all artificial flavoring.

i once visited a cocktail bar named "buttershaker" in germany, obviously butter is an important ingredient for numerous cocktails too ;-)
The signs are by no means a comprehensive list. Surely you'd just check the chilled section regardless. Seems like you were predominantly checking signs.

At least it wasn't also behind one of those asinine display doors that has a screen on it telling you what might be inside.
Omg, lol, beer and wine
