This is interesting . .. .
Margarine was originally manufactured to fatten turkeys. When it killed the turkeys, the people who had put all the money into the research wanted a payback so they put their heads together to figure out what to do with this product to get their money back.
It was a white substance with no food appeal so they added the yellow colouring and sold it to people to use in place of butter. How do you like it? They have come out with some clever new flavourings....
DO YOU KNOW.. The difference between margarine and butter?
Read on to the end...gets very interesting!
Butter is slightly higher in saturated fats at 8 grams; compared to 5 grams for margarine.
Eating margarine can increase heart disease in women by 53% over eating the same amount of butter, according to a recent Harvard Medical Study.
Eating butter increases the absorption of many other nutrients in other foods.
Butter has many nutritional benefits where margarine has a few and only because they are added!
Butter tastes much better than margarine and it can enhance the flavours of other foods.
Butter has been around for centuries where margarine has been around for less than 100 years .
And now, for Margarine..
Very High in Trans fatty acids.
Triples risk of coronary heart disease ...
Increases total cholesterol and LDL (this is the bad cholesterol) and lowers HDL cholesterol, (the good cholesterol)
Increases the risk of cancers up to five times..
Lowers quality of breast milk
Decreases immune response.
Decreases insulin response.
And here's the most disturbing fact... HERE IS THE PART THAT IS VERY INTERESTING!
Margarine is but ONE MOLECULE away from being PLASTIC... and shares 27 ingredients with PAINT.
These facts alone were enough to have me avoiding margarine for life and anything else that is hydrogenated (this means hydrogen is added, changing the molecular structure of the substance).
Open a tub of margarine and leave it open in your garage or shaded area. Within a couple of days you will notice a couple of things:
* no flies, not even those pesky fruit flies will go near it (that should tell you something)
* it does not rot or smell differently because it has no nutritional value ; nothing will grow on it. Even those teeny weeny microorganisms will not a find a home to grow.
Why? Because it is nearly plastic . Would you melt your Tupperware and spread that on your toast?
Share This With Your Friends.....(If you want to butter them up')!
Chinese Proverb:
When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others.
Pass the BUTTER PLEASE

Really good piece on Margerine!!!
When I was a small child, near the end of WW2. Meat & Vegetables were RATIONED, due to those amounts being sent to feed our Troops. Purchases for those things were REGULATED BY RATIONING STAMPS. Persons had to produce equivalent stamps...for their desired purchase. Out of stamps=NO Produce, Meat or Dairy. No BUTTER was available!!! My first recollection of Margerine (I think it was NUCOA ?) WAS: A WHITE pliable substance, in a heavy plastic bag (much like an Envelope).On top of the substance, inside the bag,was a small Capsule. If a person desired their Margarine to have a Yellow Tint, similar to butter, they squeezed/popped
The little capsule & squeezed the yellow food coloring out into it; kneeding & mixing/ THROUGH/OUTSIDE OF the plastic covering. It was then; either squeezed out, into a butter dish; or RESHAPENED (bag & all) into a rectangle, & put into the ICEBOX, to Solidify into a BRICK SHAPE.
Needless to say; there was almost a Contest, among Siblings, to be the one chosen to "Color the Margerine".
Margerine/or Butter= NEITHER ONE WERE SOLD IN PLASTIC TUBS UNTIL MUCH LATER!
Sorry. That was my comment. The screen closed b/4 I could enter my info.
