So what was the context of the question as to whether butter or margarine should be used? There are appropriate uses for each.

Go get the butter
That movie gave me the creeps. Marlon Brando should have never gotten close to nude post-Streetcar.
It was for making mac and cheese. The brother was clearly in the right by demanding butter.
Well, the Hindi and Muslims in India fought a war over the animal fat used on cartridges in the mid-1800’s ....
When I was a child growing up in Milwaukee, WI, (The Dairy State), it was illegal to sell margarine in Wisconsin. So,just like the Dukes of Hazard, our next door neighbors, who had 4 sons, would take orders from all the neighbors and the sons would drive their souped up cars to the Illinois border and do a “margarine run”. It was quite fun.
“It was for making mac and cheese. The brother was clearly in the right by demanding butter.”
Agreed. Not even debatable.
Butter!
Parkay!
Butter!
Parkay!
On mac’n’cheese (home-made)... a case could be made for margarine if you use cream or whole milk and plenty of real cheese. Just sayin’.....
It is never appropriate to use margarine.
I bet Paula Dean did the same to her brother!
There are a few baking recipes that margarine can be used for with good effect, but the oils in margarine are much worse for you healthwise than the fat in butter and in mac and cheese the taste would be much worse using margarine.
No, butter is clearly the right answer in this fight, and the DA should take that into consideration.
I stand humbly corrected.... I need to buy some butter.
‘Butter.. it’s worth fighting over’
The classic “Guns or Butter” political debate takes on a new twist — and is settled with a bladed weapon.
