Butter tastes better, but margerine is easier to spread.

Fresh, creamery butter...nothing compares. However, I do occasionally use a high-end margerine occasionally...one made with buttermilk or extra virgin olive oil (zero cholesterol, zero saturated fats, very high in omega-3 FA).

You never see ads for butter claiming it tastes like margarine.

There isn't even an option for the Fabio butter

I prefer to use butter in cooking, but like... spreadable stuff otherwise. I don't use much of either, really.

Butter

Well, at least it is better than margarine. Margarine tastes like plastic.

Hey, they're both bad for you, you might as well eat the one that tastes good!

They wear masks of silk, porcelain, brass, and silver,
So as not to mislead with their own, ordinary faces.

Neither! The calories/fat/saturated fat/cholesterol/other bad stuff isn't worth it with either. I use that 0 everything spray butter

And yes, I agree with Whetu above olive oil!

Agreed.

Butter has saturated fats but margarine has hydrogenated trans-fats that some people claim are even worse for you.

Olive oil is best by far

voted for who really cares? as long as it smears on nice, and has some flavor, and keeps the food from being terribly dry ie. toast, who cares? just shut up and eat it, be happy it's there.
