What it is
Organic butter is a dairy product made by churning fresh or fermented cream from organic milk. The churning process separates the butterfat from the buttermilk. Organic standards mean the milk comes from cows raised without synthetic hormones or antibiotics, and fed organic feed.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add butter to foods primarily for its rich flavor and creamy texture. It also contributes fat, which can improve mouthfeel and act as a cooking medium. It is commonly found in baked goods like biscuits and cookies, as well as in savory items such as popcorn and macaroni and cheese.
Health notes
Butter is a traditional food ingredient and is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of saturated fat. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend keeping saturated fat intake to less than 10% of daily calories. As a whole food, butter is not typically evaluated by JECFA or EFSA in the same manner as food additives.
Allergen info
Butter is derived from milk, which is one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA.
