    A recall that 99% won’t be claimed since if you are buying butter you know it contains milk. Gotta be real dumb to think the butter is milk free.

      They’ll just put a sticker on it that says “contains milk”. This is like one of those Tesla recalls that is really just a software update done to meet federal or state requirements.

        Exactly. I know someone who works in the food trade industry - this isn’t even that rare, small fuckups like this happen, except usually they get rectified long before local regulator intervenes

      You do realize we’re talking about the same society that requires a warning label to not eat the shampoo?

      The US is the most litigious country in the world. They’re likely making sure all bases are covered just in case.

      It isn’t about people not knowing butter has milk, its about enforcing the law so they don’t “accidentally” leave off legally required information.

      To be fair, the word butter is very vague. Shea butter has no milk, apple butter has no milk, etc.
