2.5g of fat in an 8 oz. serving would be a *mighty* poor brand of butter.
The fat in this food is of dairy origin, though, and butter is, in another
sense, not too far off the mark. <-- big, fat hint

Oh, no, never! This is lowfat buttermilk.
How do we get more people to play this game?

Three ingredients to this one, one oddly spelled, one unbelievable, which you
can guess after guessing the main ingredient:
serving size 1 pack (200 g)
protein 3 g
fat 62 mg
No calories from fat, no cholesterol
sugars 79 g
carbohydrate 117 g
saturated fat 27 mg
fiber 8 g
calories 450
VA 0mg
Vc 2 mg
Na 112 mg
Ca 28 mg
Fe 1 mg
net weight 200g
I expect that the figure for VA is way too low, so perhaps the other numbers
are also not too trustable.

I seem to remember having seen nutrition info on gum - or at least info on
the number of calories and such.

VA - vitamin A (but the 0 figure is definitely wrong)
Vc - vitamin C
62 mg fat = .062 g fat. 200 g total weight. As someone pointed out a while
back when I brought up 62 mg fat - 0 fat calories.
In this household, if you open a package of anything it becomes a serving (i.
e., it is gone within a few hours if not sooner).
Think no cholesterol (not animal), some vitamins, some fiber, little fat or
protein, one major ingredient, and two (or it could be three) additives which
contribute mainly only calories.
Think - whoever typed this up was not a native speaker of English.
It is not something that you would find, in this form, in a supermarket, but
the ingredients in it are common (except possibly for one that is probably
an odd misspelling).

Kroger is where i get my lowfat buttermilk. I bought a half gallon, and
will have to get busy baking chocolate cakes to use it up. Summer-resistant
frosting may be an interesting experiment - any ideas?

Butterfat used to be lowfat by definition - it was what was left after you
removed the fat from milk to make butter. Frosting is based on fat, how can
you make it from lowfat milk?
On 'what am i' - this is a fruit or vegetable with a minor amount of
additive, fiber and vitamins come with the primary ingredient. It is rather
a common food but prepared in a way not common here.

It is normally somewhat sweet, and originated in South American (I think)
but is now widely grown in warm climates around the world.

Clues to date suggest sweet spuds or squash, mostly dried out, then
super-charged with sugar.

Dunno. Should we give away large cash prizes (and forbid ourselves
from winning), or conduct focus group marketing research?
Anyone reading this who used to play "What Am I?" more often? Why don't
you play so much any more? Please do tell!

John Morris says he is preparing to enter a nutrition label, but has not
been able to guess any of the previous entries. Shall we wait for him?
honeypee - bee honey? I think maybe people have eaten too much yogurt and
can't think of anything else to enter any more.

It looks like a well-made chocolate bribe would get valerie to post. But
we need a "critical mass" of people to start and keep playing. Hmmm.....

I try to play, but everything is always so obscure, I have no idea (plus I
was out of town all summer).

But I only just started during the "most recent entries", so all I've seen
are obscure items.
