A businesswoman has been ordered by Lithuania s food safety regulator to scrap her brand, Buttered Butter (Sviestas Sviestuotas), over EU laws. She counters that that the brand s use of a common Lithuanian phrase should not be taken literally and even the country s Economy Ministry has now gotten involved.
Dovilė Stonė founded her peanut butter business in 2014. It took time and effort to get it going, but she now enjoys a steady sale of product under the cheeky brand Sviestas Sviestuotas.
