Nearly 80,000 pounds of Costco butter was recalled because its packaging was missing the "Contains Milk statement."

    I leave butter out. I try to limit it to a week, and usually succeed since I cook with it now. I’ve seen it turn color and taste after a couple weeks but it’s still edible and never made me sick

    My brother refrigerates and claims that if you make thin slices it gets soft pretty quickly. I’ve also seen YouTube claims to that, but I must not be patient enough

      I’ve found that even a month is fine, even, at least for salted, although I try to leave it out for much less than that.

      In any case, just slice off about a weeks worth of butter from your block or stick and and leave the rest refrigerated.
