Butter, Butter, Who's Got the Butter? Costco Recalls 80,000 Pounds Due to Potential Salmonella Contamination

Hold the butter! Costco has issued a massive recall for over 80,000 pounds of butter due to a potential Salmonella contamination. That's a lot of butter, folks! This isn't just a small inconvenience, it's a full-blown butter crisis.

So what happened? Well, the butter was produced by a company called "Land O'Lakes" and sold in 1-pound packages. The problem? It could be contaminated with Salmonella. This is a pretty serious issue, as Salmonella can cause food poisoning with symptoms like diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps. Yikes!

Here's the lowdown: The recall affects butter that was sold in Costco stores across the country. It's got a "Sell By" date of October 11, 2023, and a "Lot Code" of 23168. If you've got this butter in your fridge, toss it!

What should you do if you've got this butter? Don't even think about trying it. Throw it out ASAP! You can also contact Costco for a refund. But seriously, don't risk it. Food poisoning is no joke.

This whole situation is kind of a bummer, right? Butter is a staple in many households, and it's hard to imagine a breakfast or dinner without it. But safety first, folks! It's better to be safe than sorry. So, go ahead and check your fridge and double-check that "Sell By" date.

Stay safe and enjoy your butter-free (for now) meals!

Remember, you can always find more information on the Costco website or contact them directly.
