Awwww

Wish I had seen this earlier!! THe Hay/alfalfa smell is completely normal when using leaf/shake. I make butter with my trim all the time, and when it's cooking it STINKS my house smells like a barnyard, but by the time all is said and done it's fabulous in cooking, it doesn't taste bad depending on what you put it in, it's just the way it smells when cooking out.

Hope you didn't toss it!
