If you are too stupid to know that butter "contains milk" maybe you deserve the outcome.

From the post:

>Would you toss your butter in the trash if the label left out one critical detail? For some Costco shoppers, the answer is yes, according to the latest FDA guidance. In a recent recall, batches of Costco’s popular butter were pulled due to a missing allergen label—a slip that could pose serious risks for certain consumers. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is urging customers to check their refrigerators for specific product codes and to follow its disposal instructions if they find affected butter.

80,000# sounds like a lot, but it's about two semi-truckloads. I did a short gig as a truck dispatcher. Lots of food products are damaged or destroyed every day. Eggs get broken, a load shifts inside a trailer and product or packaging gets damaged, a driver has to hit the brakes and bottles break. That's what insurance is for.

Good info to add. Thanks, I was going to say that even though that sounds like a lot it probably is not that much especially when distributed in smaller amounts over even 1 state worth of stores.

I forgot to mention the expensive headaches that happen when refrigeration units fail or when the driver forgets to turn it on or sets it to the wrong temperature. Murphy's Law. If anything can go wrong, it will.

Yeah, In the "cold states" I have seen wrecks just give away any of the food/meat in the trailer that was not compromised or it went to local food kitchens. If it is cold enough outside, why not?

I have never received any of it but I know plenty that did. Anything from boxes of bacon to steaks or just frozen fruit/veg.
