Swedish west coast area. But the butter is probably from anywhere in Sweden.
Swedish cows are mainly grass fed but also get certain amounts of grains.

Speaking of CLA...I have been supplementing with it for over a year
now....initially to promote fat loss and other supposed health benefits of
CLA.
I used to have very bad allergies during pollen season. Since taking CLA my
pollen allergies are nearly nonexistent. I believe it also helped me to boost
muscle mass and reduce body fat,
I am not writing this to suggest that anyone else supplement with CLA or
invite criticism of my using it,....mainly just adding to this thread that I
think it may have helped me conquer my pollen allergies.
