There is a current recall of 64,800 pounds of butter in the United States and the Dominican Republic. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has given the second-highest risk level to a recall of said butter, which is produced by Bunge North American, Inc. The company initially recalled the butter due to an undeclared milk allergen in mid-July just a week ago. Here is how to check if your butter is part of the recent recall.

The recalled butter went out to 12 distribution centers throughout the U.S., with one going to the Dominican Republic. The FDA alert, however, did not specify where the butter was sold.
Why Was This Butter Recalled?
The undeclared milk allergen was the reason for the recall. On July 30th, 2025, the FDA gave this recall a Class II risk level, meaning that consuming the affected butter “…may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences.” The probability of an adverse health effect is “remote,” according to the FDA, but better to be safe than sorry.
People who are sensitive or allergic to milk run the risk of a serious allergic reaction if they consume the recalled butter. If you can consume milk, the butter is safer to eat, but you may still experience negative side effects.
What Should You Do?
Got a milk allergy? You should most certainly avoid the recalled butter at all costs. Due to the Class II risk level, it is best to either throw the product away, or return the product, even if you can safely consume milk.
