Fake Butter, Chemical Spreads and Margarine

For those of you who grew up with parents that tried to convince you that butter is the devil and that margarine is a safer, lower-fat alternative, I encourage you just this once to believe that mama didn’t ALWAYS know best. I can’t believe it’s not butter. Because it isn’t butter. Nor is it edible. Really.

Margarine, faux-butter and those chemical sprays that somehow made their way onto the shelves of supermarkets across America are loaded with cheap, processed, artificial ingredients and fillers.

These can do a real number on your arteries and your heart, leading to serious problems in the not-so-distant future. Worst of all? These butter-substitutes don’t even taste good! The solution here is obvious. Butter. That’s right.

The real deal. The one your mom told you to stay away from. But not just any butter – grass-fed, organic butter. It’s filled with healthy fats, is a good source of conjugated linoleic acid, as well as vitamins A, D and E, and almost most importantly… It tastes spectacular!
