Costco was forced to recall nearly 80,000 pounds of butter because the label failed to mention that the kitchen staple contains milk — and many social media users are rolling their eyes at the diary dilemma.
The FDA sent out an initial recall for 79,200 pounds of Kirkland Signature butter due to the undeclared allergen in October. Packages for both the salted and unsalted Kirkland Signature Sweet Cream Butter list cream as an ingredient, but do not include an allergy warning that that butter “Contains Milk.”
The bizarre recall has left many Internet users scratching their heads. The most common comment: “It’s butter.”
“80,000 pounds of Costco butter was just recalled, because the label doesn’t say that it contains milk. It’s butter. News articles are telling people how they can return, or safely dispose of, the butter. It’s butter,” one person deadpanned.
One social media user joked, “Can y’all please safely dispose of it at my house? I have a lot of holiday baking to do.”
Another added: “If you need to government to tell you that butter is a dairy product then…well, I can’t help you God I loathe the state.”
