AAA butter

Back in the 1970s, I studied with Lydie Marshall, who used a supplier of AAA butter located near the Lower East Side of NY. Lydie moved to Provence 20 years ago so I doubt that she'd remember who the supplier was. So I'm wondering if this rings a bell for anyone and if there still is (are?) any supplier of this grade of butter in the New York area.

RussellW, I don't think I've ever heard of Grade AAA Butter. As you probably know, AA is currently the highest grade. You've made me curious - do you remember anything else about this butter?

All I remember was going down to the LES to buy the butter, which was made on the premises. I just emailed Lydie. Perhaps there's an outside chance that she would remember. If so, I'll post what I learn.
