The butter was packaged in wax paper and sold refrigerated or frozen, meaning some units may still be in household refrigerators or freezers.
The FDA record identifies 1,304 cases in the recall.
Where was the product distributed?
The FDA distribution list includes Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, New Hampshire, New Jersey and Wisconsin.
The available U.S. distribution information does not identify Canadian retail distribution for the affected lot.
Canadians who purchased the product while travelling in the United States, ordered it from a U.S. retailer or received it through another cross-border channel should still check the UPC and lot codes.
Canada’s official recall database remains the appropriate place to check for Canadian-specific food recall notices.
What consumers should do
Do not eat, cook with, serve or sell the butter if the package matches the recalled UPC and lot information.
Consumers should return the product to the retailer for a refund or dispose of it safely, following food recall guidance.
People should not donate recalled food or give it to pets.
After handling the product, wash hands and clean any knives, dishes or food containers that came into contact with it.
What Class II means
The FDA uses a Class II designation when exposure to a recalled product may cause temporary or medically reversible health consequences, while the likelihood of serious harm is considered remote.
The classification does not mean that every package is contaminated, but it does mean consumers should follow the recall instructions for the specific lot.
The FDA listing identifies yeast, mold and E. coli as the reasons for the recall, but it does not identify the type of E. coli in the product.
Anyone who feels ill after eating a recalled product should contact a health-care professional and mention the recalled food.
What happens next?
The recall remains a firm-initiated action being monitored through the FDA’s enforcement system.
Retailers may publish separate notices with instructions for refunds and may remove the affected product from shelves.
Consumers should rely on the UPC, lot code and best-before information rather than the product name alone because other Miyoko’s products and other lots are not identified in this recall.
