Butter versus margarine: the debate rages on for some reason
Butter versus margarine: the debate rages on for some reason
The butter versus margarine debate played out in the Globe recently, as companies like Becel (the one Sarah Polley refuses to endorse) pack in the omega-3s and pull out the saturated fats. The 1,000-word article doesn’t definitively say if one is better than the other. Rather, it talks about how the omega-3s in margarine aren’t as good as the ones found in fish oils. To save readers some time, here’s the bottom line: as long as people aren’t eating sticks of butter like Popsicles or scooping margarine like ice cream, both fats can be consumed in small doses.
I have to ask- why would anyone want to use margarine?
The taste is revolting and on movie popcorn…ewwwww… a gastrointestinal hellish event in digestion follows.
We are all trying to simplify our lives…why would you want more chemicals in your body?
Back to basics- a little butter goes a long way and makes things taste fabulous, provides a silky finish to foods and is non chemical…
The next debate: Coffee Creamer Powder vs. Real Milk Products…just as chemically challenging, just as scary!
Too many butters have trans fats in them
