Dr. Oz claims butter costs just $1
Original: Dr. Oz claims butter costs $1
Dr. Oz, the former TV host now serving as Medicare administrator, sparked backlash after claiming a pound of butter costs around $1, a figure far below actual US grocery prices, which typically run several dollars. Critics accused him of being out of touch with the cost of living, and the remark quickly spread as an example of tone-deaf commentary on food prices.
Why now: The claim contradicts widely known grocery prices, making it easy for people to mock and share.
