strip-bom 
Strip UTF-8 byte order mark (BOM) from a string/buffer/stream
From Wikipedia:
The Unicode Standard permits the BOM in UTF-8, but does not require nor recommend its use. Byte order has no meaning in UTF-8.
Usage
sh $ npm install --save strip-bom
js var fs = require('fs'); var stripBom = require('strip-bom'); stripBom('\ufeffUnicorn'); //=> Unicorn stripBom(fs.readFileSync('unicorn.txt')); //=> Unicorn
Or as a Transform stream:
js var fs = require('fs'); var stripBom = require('strip-bom'); fs.createReadStream('unicorn.txt') .pipe(stripBom.stream()) .pipe(fs.createWriteStream('unicorn.txt'));
CLI
sh $ npm install --global strip-bom
$ strip-bom --help Usage strip-bom <file> > <new-file> cat <file> | strip-bom > <new-file> Example strip-bom unicorn.txt > unicorn-without-bom.txt
