About this update from Vital Farms, Inc.

[{"type":"text","content":"AUSTIN, Texas, April 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vital Farms (Nasdaq: VITL) is raising the standards for great tasting, ethically produced butter. The company has refreshed its entire portfolio of butter products, which are now 90% grass-fed, produced by cows that are pasture-raised on family farms, and packaged in new, playful cartons. With these key updates, Vital Farms aims to propel its butter business forward and deliver delicious golden butter to consumers. “Vital Farms is continuing to raise our high butter standards—pasture-raised practices, cows raised on family farms, and high butterfat—and we’ve elevated our butter to a 90% grass-fed standard,” said Russell Diez-Canseco, President & CEO, Vital Farms. “The result of all this hard work is a great tasting butter in new packaging that reinforces our premium brand and stands out on the shelf. It’s a product my family is excited to spread on toast next to a couple of pasture-raised scrambled eggs.” Vital Farms butter is produced by cows that are pasture-raised with care and respect on family dairy farms that allow them to express their natural behaviors in low stress, grass-based farming conditions. The cows are 90% grass-fed, with freedom to graze on open pastures an average of 200 days per year, so they can produce rich cream that is churned into beautiful, golden butter. The remaining 10% of their diets come from a buffet of barley, oats, corn meal, and supplemental vitamins and minerals to support their overall nutrition and wellbeing. Vital Farms Unsalted and Salted butters can be found on grocery shelves across the country now in refreshed packaging featuring the various breeds of cows that produce the butter, such as Holsteins and Jerseys, grazing on green pastures to celebrate the grass-fed standard. These butters also continue to adhere to European butter standards with 83 – 85% butterfat, offering creamy, delicious products that can be enjoyed for baking, cooking, or simply spreading.
