You must have either very small sticks of butter, or very large cups.

>1 cup of butter = 8 oz (1/2 pound) = 227 grams


I can see the butter packet are small from your conversion. The butter in
my fridge only says 250g on it, no mention of cups. So without a conversion
program or list you need to buy American butter to make American recipes.
