Hang on a minute. My entire life there have been ingredients lists on food products, usually under the nutrition facts grid. More recently I've seen additional language on packaging that says something like "Warning: Contains nuts." Did they fail to put that "Warning: Contains milk" on there, or did they omit the ingredients list entirely (which, for butter, should be cream and maybe salt). Like...?

I also wonder if they'll be able to put the same butter into corrected packaging and still sell it.

The brand’s salted and unsalted Sweet Cream Butter list cream as an ingredient on the packaging. However, the label does not warn consumers that the product “contains milk.”
