Can you tone down the butter and chocolate?

I barely get any money from your hearts and events, I can’t make money by selling gear because even vendors don’t even give me a silver for most of it, and now instead of getting totems and claws from loot bags, all I get is butter and chocolate. I don’t care about cooks, they can get their mats for karma like it was before. I made a picture showing how I feel about all this butter:

We did also reduce the amount of butter and chocolate you get from bags. I was a bit nervous about taking them off vendors since they are such a staple, but I’ll be the first to admit that I went a smidge overboard. It’s felt a lot better since the change went Live, at least from my own experience (and I do play the game a lot and do lots of crafting!) How do you all feel about how much butter you get now?

Thanks for the feedback all! I’ll discuss things with Izzy and see if any action is needed. As a note, I did not put any butter or chocolate in the bags dropped from Undead. It just felt too icky.

We can’t have any recipes that are karma/coin only due to the ease in earning karma and coin. The change with butter (and the other ingredients that were moved off karma) were the fewest amount of items needed to be moved to address the recipes that were an issue. The alternative to butter was both flour and sugar. I will not move butter back to karma, but I can look at other potential solutions to the surplus.
