儘管產品包裝上標示含有鮮奶油（cream），卻遺漏了關鍵的「含有牛奶（contains milk）」過敏警示。

列為「第二級召回」 建議選擇丟棄或退回零售商以獲全額退費
FDA將這次召回列為「第二級召回」，表示接觸該產品可能會造成「暫時性或可逆的不良健康影響」。對於已購買該批次產品的消費者，FDA建議選擇丟棄或退回零售商以獲全額退費。
Costco was just forced to recall 80,000 lbs of BUTTER because it wasn't labeled with "Contains Milk." If we have people buying/consuming BUTTER who are unaware that it contains milk then I have little-to-no hope for civilization. It's BUTTER! https://t.co/7zpZel0oZ8

引發網友熱議
這宗召回事件在網絡上引發熱烈討論。不少美國網友卻感到不解，認為奶油中含有牛奶成分是常識，紛紛發表評論，「這是奶油耶！」「難道還需要特別說明奶油裡面有牛奶嗎？」「下次是不是要在牛扒上標示『注意，本產品含有牛肉』？」
