Butter vs Margarine – Which is Better?

Well, you all know that I believe everything in moderation and at the beginning of this year, we switched from margarine to butter, much to the hubby’s delight and we use it sparingly.. a one pound block of butter lasts at least 2 weeks, where before we started our program, I was probably going through a pound of margarine in just over a week.

But really, which is better for you? Well, if you do a search, there are tons of sites which take sides but when it boils down to it,  neither in great quantities is good for a person.

One of the many articles I read says 4-5 teaspoons is probably all you should have in a day… which doesn’t take long.. you butter a piece of toast, there’s one.. you have a sandwich for lunch there’s one or two more and then if you put a teaspoon on your veggies or a potato at dinner.. you are done for the day.

So, you decide for yourself..and have an awesome weekend!
