    I mean, he did say a stick of butter is about a buck

    No he didn’t. He just said “butter is a dollar”. He never specified “stick”

      He did but not in the way the other user implies. The video in the article shows him pointing to the unopened box/pound and saying “this stick”.

          Not watching the video right now, but the quote in the article is

          “Stick of butter, bag of peanuts. Butter in America, it’s about a buck [for] a stick like this.”

          …no? He said “stick of butter, bag of peanuts. Butter is about a buck” and then Laura said something

            Except butter is for box because you don’t buy just a single stick. He said “stick of butter in a bag of peanuts”, which isn’t a adult.

            Now you’re just cherry picking, because you refused to admit you’re wrong, and I don’t have time to waste on people like you.
