How Long Does Fresh Butter Last?
Fresh butter typically lasts for two weeks when stored in the refrigerator. However, the shelf life of butter can be extended by freezing it. Butter can last in the freezer for up to six months. It is important to wrap butter tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil to prevent freezer burn. When in doubt, it is always best to check the expiration date or look for signs of spoilage such as a rancid odor or discoloration.
