If you love buying your butter in bulk, hopefully you're already stocked up for Thanksgiving because you're going to have a hard time finding any at Costco.
The FDA recently forced Costco to recall nearly 80,000 pounds of butter from its stores in Texas after they found some of the packaging may have been possibly mislabeled.
According to UPI, 46,800 pounds of the Kirkland Signature Unsalted Sweet Cream Butter and 32,400 pounds of Kirkland Signature Salted Sweet Cream Butter were removed from store shelves after the products didn't clearly indicate that they contained milk.
The FDA said that milk is an allergen that might cause "temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences" for those who are allergic to it, and though they explained the potential for serious health problems due to consuming the products is "remote," the FDA advised the recall.
All of the recalled butter was produced at the Continental Diary Facilities Southwest in Texas and have "best by" dates from Feb. 22 to March 29. The 16-ounce packages of the salted sweet cream butter contain four 4-ounce sticks of butter and have the UPC code 96619-38488.
