Cabot Creamery issued a voluntarily recall for a single lot of its Extra Creamy Premium Butter, Sea Salted in seven states, totaling 1,700 pounds across 189 cases, after testing found the product to be contaminated with elevated levels of coliform bacteria, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The bacteria may suggest fecal contamination.

“Agri-Mark successfully recovered 99.5% of the lot of the recalled product before it was sold to consumers,” the parent company said in a statement on Wednesday. “A small amount —17 retail packages (8.5 lbs.) — was sold to consumers in Vermont.”

The FDA marked the recall as Class III, which is “reserved for products that are not likely to cause adverse health consequences.” No illnesses or complaints related to the affected product have been reported.

Coliform is commonly found in the environment and feces of humans and animals, according to the Vermont State Department of Health. Although most types of coliform bacteria are harmless, fecal coliform and bacteria such as E.coli can cause illness.

The recalled butter was distributed in Arkansas, Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania and Vermont.

The butter is packaged as two 4-ounce sticks in cardboard shells. To identify the recalled product, consumers should look for the following:
