Cabot Creamery Recalls Butter Due to Possible Contamination

Cabot Creamery is recalling a limited quantity of its sea-salted Extra Creamy Premium Butter due to potential contamination. The recall involves 189 cases of the eight-ounce packages of butter, identified by specific date codes. During routine testing, the company discovered elevated levels of coliform bacteria. While not all coliform bacteria are harmful, their presence can suggest possible fecal contamination.

Cabot Creamery is taking this action as a precautionary measure to ensure the safety of its consumers. The company is working with retailers to remove the affected butter from store shelves. Consumers who have purchased the recalled butter should discard it immediately. They can also contact Cabot Creamery's customer service department for information on how to receive a refund or replacement.

"The safety and quality of our products are our top priorities," said a Cabot Creamery spokesperson. "We are committed to providing our customers with safe and delicious dairy products. We regret any inconvenience this recall may cause."

Consumers can identify the recalled butter by checking the date code printed on the package. Specific details about the affected date codes are available on the Cabot Creamery website and through their customer service hotline. The company emphasizes that no other Cabot Creamery products are affected by this recall.
