Extract

1. The reworking of stored butter stimulates dormant bacteria into renewed growth and, since these are frequently taint-producing organisms, may hasten the deterioration of retail butter.

2. Blends of sweet cream and ripened cream (acid) butters may contain a greater variety of organisms than reworked samples of either type, and conditions may be created which are even more favourable for bacterial activity.
