What it is

Butter is a dairy product made by churning fresh or fermented cream or milk. It is primarily composed of butterfat, water, and milk solids. "Grassfed" indicates the cows that produced the milk ate grass, and "organic" means the milk came from cows raised according to organic farming standards.

Why it's used

Butter is used as a spread, a cooking fat, and an ingredient in baked goods and sauces. Manufacturers add it for its rich flavor, creamy texture, and to help with browning and leavening in baked items.

Health notes

Butter is recognized as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of saturated fat, and dietary guidelines recommend limiting saturated fat intake. JECFA has evaluated butter and did not set a numeric limit (ADI not specified).

Allergen info

Butter is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
