Sticks of butter
US butter comes in sticks of ½ cup, marked in 8 tablespoons on the wrapper. USDA weighs one stick at 113 g.
The cup rows use USDA’s 1-cup portion (227 g) and these use its 1-stick portion,
so half a cup reads 113.5 g and one stick 113 g.
Salted and unsalted butter weigh the same per cup in USDA's data. In the US, butter is sold in sticks of half a cup, and the wrapper is marked in tablespoons.
Where this number comes from
USDA FoodData Central lists 1 cup of “Butter, without salt” at 227 g; its stick portion is 113 g
(FDC ID 173430, SR Legacy).
Everything else is worked out from that figure: spoons from 1 cup =
16 tablespoons = 48 teaspoons, and ounces and pounds
from their exact definitions (1 oz = 28.349523125 g, 1 lb = 453.59237 g, NIST).
