Butter or margarine - what are your reasons? :)

Do you prefer one of the two simply because of the taste/texture/cooking ways etc. or other reasons too, like any health related reasons or something else?

Forum highlights on Butt plugs:

Interested in Urethral Plugs?
I wanted to bring up the subject of urethral plugs in case that could be something that would interest people around here. Since I'm single, I did not...

Why women like butt plugs?
Please tell why you like them and how you use them.

How do I know if a plug is good for use during intercourse?
I don't want it to fall out, or god forbid, slip inside. So is there a specific size I should be looking at for the base?

Rechargeable or electric plug vibrators?
I'm trying to decide between a rechargeable cordless vibe or a electric powered vibe. I think most direct powered vibes are going to be stronger than.

Best plug for stretching before intercourse?
Intermediate anal enthusiast here and I'm looking for someone who can recommend the best plug to stretch me out. I can handle a 1.75 bulbed plug, but.

So happy to see the results of this so far. Margarine does not qualify as a food. I once heard it described by a chemist as "one molecule away from plastic." Not only does it taste disgusting, it's about one of the worst things you can eat (along with all other hydrogenated oils.) Saturated fat, contrary to popular belief, is NOT your enemy when used within reason. Same goes for dietary cholesterol. We have been conned as a society to go against the natural foods our ancestors ate and instead buy fake, fortified, and "heart healthy" products that are cheap and highly marketable. It's one of my missions in life to get people to go back to real food.

Whipped butter is easy to spread on toast, just let it sit in room temperature for approximately fifteen minutes to soften up a little.

Besides the fact that margarine does it can to fake the texture, color,scent and flavor of butter, there is no question it was sold as a "healthy" alternative. Now we know farmers, drinking whole milk and eating lots of CREAM products, live VERY long lives and we also know margarine is made of all kinds of oils and chemicals to stabilize it. Oh yum.

Give me REAL butter ANYTIME.

Nothing tastes like butter--what would baking be without butter!! I do mix butter with shortening for some baked goods (like pie crust) for the texture. I use a ratio of 3 butter to 1 Crisco. I have read some baked goods recipes that specify not to use butter and some recipes that call for oil. Carrot cake recipes always use vegetable oil. I have used butter without problems, so I don't know. We are butter, butter, butter people!!

Aughgh. My post from yesterday didn't show up.

I love butter. It's the only dairy product I can eat. It doesn't have trans fats or "and/or" oils like margarine does (and margarine isn't ONE molecule away from plastic, it is considered "a polymer" so it's actually an edible (kinda) plastic.) It's just so bad for you, and the taste is vile. I'd rather cut back on other things, if necessary and buy real butter. In our area, there really isn't much of a price difference between butter and margarine, anyway.

We often will buy butter when it is on sale (like around the Holidays) and wrap it and freeze it, or buy it at Aldi, where it costs less than margarine from a regular grocery store.

I like the taste, texture and feel of real butter. My mother never bought butter. She only bought margarine. It wasn't due to "health reasons" she was cheap and she honestly didn't care about food quality. She still buys that margarine like stuff that is supposed to lower your cholesterol. I've told her it doesn't work, and is just crap, but she is swayed by advertising. ("They can't say it on TV if it isn't true." Face palm.)

I do occasionally mix butter with non trans fat shortening for some baking, as butter can make very greasy baked goods (but margarine makes baked goods even greasier) but, we use butter for many things. In actuality, it is healthier for you than any margarine.

Butter is real, margarine isn't. Trans fats don't belong in the human body, ever.
