Cabot Creamery Butter Recalled Over Contamination Concerns in 7 States
Hey everyone, I just wanted to give you a quick heads-up about something important, especially if you’ve recently bought butter from Cabot Creamery. There’s been a recall affecting their Extra Creamy Premium Sea Salted Butter—yeah, the one in those 8oz packages—and it's making news because of a concerning contamination issue.
So here's what’s going on. Cabot Creamery, through their parent company Agri-Mark, has recalled over 1,700 pounds of butter—specifically 189 cases—after tests revealed elevated levels of coliform bacteria. Now, coliform itself isn’t necessarily dangerous, but its presence can be an indicator that other harmful bacteria, like E. coli, might be lurking. It's basically a red flag for potential fecal contamination, which, let’s be honest, is not what anyone wants associated with their butter.

The butter in question comes in cardboard packs with two 4-ounce sticks. If you're trying to check your stash at home, look for these details: the Best By date is 09/09/25 , the Lot number is 090925-055 , and the Item # is 2038 , with the UPC code 0 78354 62038 0 . According to the FDA, this recall is classified as a Class III, which means it's not likely to cause serious health consequences—but still, better safe than sorry, right?
The product was distributed to seven states: Arkansas, Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania , and Vermont . However, Cabot Creamery has stated that 99.5% of the product was recovered before reaching consumers , and only 17 packages were actually sold at retail. They also mentioned that all the store-sold butter ended up only in Vermont . So, the good news is that the vast majority of the affected butter didn’t even make it to shelves.
No illnesses or complaints have been reported so far, and Cabot says they’ve identified the issue and addressed it internally. Still, if you’ve bought this specific butter and you’re in one of those seven states—especially Vermont—just double-check. If you find the affected product, your safest bet is to either throw it out or return it to the store where you bought it.
It’s not often we hear about butter being recalled, so this one definitely caught my attention. Even though the risk is considered low, it’s always better to play it safe when it comes to anything food-related. Keep an eye on your fridge, and if you know someone who might’ve picked up this product, give them a heads-up too.
Stay safe and butter smart, folks.
