| 78 | − | The 250 g foil-wrapped block of unsalted Danish butter, sold under EAN 5740900053304 in the United Kingdom and Denmark; British convenience retailers list the same number for the 250 g pack.[^devo][^off] The wrapper carries the crossed-lur logo with "Estd 1901" and the claim "made from 100% fresh milk"; its label side gives the legal denomination "Lurpak Unsalted Butter", a minimum fat content of 82%, the allergen line "Contains milk" and a "keep refrigerated" instruction.[^off] The producer's page lists the ingredients as butter and lactic culture, both from milk, and prints the same nutrition values as the wrapper.[^lurpak] Lurpak is a Danish butter brand owned by Arla Foods, sold in over 75 countries, whose principal market is the United Kingdom.[^enwiki-lurpak] Arla dates the brand to 1901, when Danish dairy farmers and their co-operatives joined forces to protect their butter under the "Lurmark" trademark.[^arla-lurpak] Open Food Facts records the origin of the ingredients and the place of manufacture for this barcode as Denmark.[^off] The barcode's 574 prefix falls in the 570–579 range issued to Denmark, the Faroe Islands and Greenland, which names the GS1 member organisation the licensee joined rather than where the butter was churned; no source consulted here names the registrant of this particular number, so no prefix-owner relation is recorded.[^gs1-prefixes] The unsalted block is one of three sizes in its line, alongside 200 g and 400 g.[^lurpak] | |
| 143 | + | Lurpak Unsalted Butter 250 g is a foil-wrapped block of unsalted butter sold under EAN 5740900053304. Unusually for a food pack, the wrapper prints no ingredient list: it carries the denomination "Lurpak® Unsalted Butter", a minimum fat content of 82%, the allergen line "Contains milk" and a keep-refrigerated instruction, the labelling a single-ingredient food may use.[^off] The maker's own page for the article lists the ingredients as butter and lactic culture, both from milk, and publishes the same nutrition figures the wrapper prints, except for salt, which the pack qualifies as less than 0.01 g.[^lurpak] Lurpak is a Danish butter brand owned by Arla Foods and sold in more than 75 countries; the United Kingdom is its principal market.[^enwiki-lurpak] | |

| 145 | + | The brand dates to October 1901, when Danish dairy farmers and their co-operative dairies joined forces to protect their butter under the "Lurmark" trademark, and its logo shows two crossed lurs.[^arla-lurpak][^enwiki-lurpak] On 1 June 2026 Arla Foods and DMK Group merged, uniting about 11,200 farmers and 28,800 employees under the Arla name.[^arla-dmk] The label photographs on file were uploaded in July 2019 and show no origin statement or operator address, so the Danish origin recorded here rests on Open Food Facts' typed establishment code and a Singapore retailer's country-of-origin field rather than on the wrapper itself.[^off][^littlefarms] | |

## About <!--about-->
The 250 g foil-wrapped block of unsalted Danish butter, sold under EAN 5740900053304 in the United Kingdom and Denmark; British convenience retailers list the same number for the 250 g pack.[^devo][^off] The wrapper carries the crossed-lur logo with "Estd 1901" and the claim "made from 100% fresh milk"; its label side gives the legal denomination "Lurpak Unsalted Butter", a minimum fat content of 82%, the allergen line "Contains milk" and a "keep refrigerated" instruction.[^off] The producer's page lists the ingredients as butter and lactic culture, both from milk, and prints the same nutrition values as the wrapper.[^lurpak] Lurpak is a Danish butter brand owned by Arla Foods, sold in over 75 countries, whose principal market is the United Kingdom.[^enwiki-lurpak] Arla dates the brand to 1901, when Danish dairy farmers and their co-operatives joined forces to protect their butter under the "Lurmark" trademark.[^arla-lurpak] Open Food Facts records the origin of the ingredients and the place of manufacture for this barcode as Denmark.[^off] The barcode's 574 prefix falls in the 570–579 range issued to Denmark, the Faroe Islands and Greenland, which names the GS1 member organisation the licensee joined rather than where the butter was churned; no source consulted here names the registrant of this particular number, so no prefix-owner relation is recorded.[^gs1-prefixes] The unsalted block is one of three sizes in its line, alongside 200 g and 400 g.[^lurpak]
