DUBLIN, CALIF., (June 24, 2015) — Challenge Dairy Products, Inc., a leading supermarket brand with a 100-year history of selling quality dairy products, continues to innovate and is proud to announce the addition of three new products to its portfolio to cater to the needs and wants of today’s consumer.
- Lactose-free Spreadable Butter with Canola Oil
- Strawberry Cream Cheese Spread
- Salsa Cream Cheese Spread
Lactose-Free Spreadable Butter with Canola Oil
With over 10 percent of the human population being lactose intolerant and more diagnosis’ occurring every day, Challenge recognized a need for a lactose-free substitute that maintained the quality and flavor of regular butter.
“At Challenge, we believe anyone who wants to enjoy butter should be able to,” said Tim Anderson, SVP of Retail and Food Service for Challenge Dairy Products, Inc. “We set out to create a butter for the lactose intolerant equal in flavor and quality to our original butter and are pleased to introduce a lactose-free butter that anyone—lactose-intolerant or not – will enjoy.”
Challenge’s new Lactose-free Spreadable Butter removes the milk solids or lactose through a clarification process resulting in a clarified butter with the real flavor of Challenge. The clarified butter is then blended with Canola Oil to create a butter that spreads smoothly.
Beginning in June, Challenge’s Lactose Free Spreadable Butter with Canola Oil will be available in 15 oz tubs in the butter aisle at throughout the country including retailers such as Harris Teeter, Meijer, Winn Dixie, BI-Lo, Walmart, HEB, Jewel, Safeway Nor Cal, Savemart, Lucky’s, Vons, Albertsons So Cal, Albertson Arizona and Albertsons Intermountain divisions.

Challenge is bringing a little flair and heat to the cream cheese aisle with its Salsa flavored Cream Cheese Spread.
