It's not. You're making things up again. You have provided a single example of a product that's not widely available in the UK ( because ppl aren't much interested in it ) ! You also can't get Cornish Clotted Cream in the USA btw AIUI ! Just try it. There's little demand for buttermilk so it's not widely stocked. Simple really. It's 'the market' in action. If you wanted it in every shop you'd want a socialist system perhaps. Graham
