Butter. I think it has a better taste and is actually better for you (in moderation) than super processed, made-in-a-laboratory margarine. My husband has been suggesting we start using lard, but I don't think I am ready for that.

I put other cuz I use both for diff things. For actually cooking I think butter but margarine is used often for other things as well. I do think butter is healthier even if more fattening.

Re: Butter or Margarine?
Definitely butter! I used to not care, but then my boyfriend all of the sudden one day says "let's start using butter from now on, margarine is basically plastic and that creeps me out"
Usually I'm the pita that says eww that's not good for you or green this and green that, blah blah blah.

Re: Butter or Margarine?
I bake with butter, sometimes use margarine on toast though. I love to saute with butter and olive oil, and sometimes bacon grease

Butter. Bacon grease. Coconut oil. (Pretty much in that order, depending on heat requirements and taste [bacon] input.)

I exclusively use EVOO, except when baking, then I use butter. Butter is much better in moderation as someone already mentioned. I'm over the margarine thing, but I like those "I can't believe it's not butter" commercials.

Re: Butter or Margarine?
I cannot use margarine. Margarine causes severe painful stomach upset.
I use butter, evoo and vegetable oil for frying depending on what I'm making.

Re: Butter or Margarine?
Lately I have switched out margarine for whipped butter as far as toast etc and cook with butter or evoo mostly.

Re: Butter or Margarine?
I use extra virgin olive oil most of the time. No margarine, it is one molecule from being plastic. The ants won't even eat it.
