Butter from a farm

RAM

Think of a male sheep often found on rural farms, whose name sounds like a spread you might put on toast.

"Ram" is a male sheep, and sheep are often raised on farms for wool, meat, and dairy—including butter. The clue plays on the double meaning: "butter" hints at a dairy product, but it’s also a homophone for "butt," which is another word for a ram’s head (or the act of ramming). So, "butter from a farm" cleverly points to the animal itself, not the dairy.
