The Hill, The Washington Times and the New York Post report that a plant-based butter has been recalled in 10 states over yeast, mold and E. coli. The Hill reports that the Food and Drug Administration has assigned the recall a risk level. The New York Post identifies the product as Miyoko’s Creamery European Style Salted Plant Milk Butter, made by Prosperity Organic Foods, Inc., and reports that the recall was assigned a Class II risk level on Friday, which it says means the product can cause “temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences.” Citing WGRZ, the New York Post reports that the recall began after Market Basket notified customers of high yeast levels that did not meet quality standards. The FDA’s enforcement report lists yeast, mold and E. coli as reasons for the recall.
