To get Butter in Starfield, you can either find it or buy it from a Vendor. While looking for Butter around the galaxy can save you money, it likely won’t save you time. If you do choose to go down this route, then I advise checking kitchens for this ingredient. Though, keep in mind, not all kitchens will have Butter in them.

If you want a quicker way to get hold of Butter, I suggest buying it from a Vendor. Select Vendors through the galaxy sell butter, but I find buying it from CJ’s Store in the Residential District of New Atlantis, on Jemison, to be the easiest and most reliable. CJ sells Butter for 55 Credits a piece.
