Maybe we need to first define "margarine". 

I happen to use a  product called "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter"- ICBIN, for short.  Is that considered "margarine" ?

So, here's the scoop on ICBIN:  on the box of ICBIN, it gives a comparsion of ICBIN versus butter:

- both are listed as 100 calories

- both are listed as 11 grams total fat

- ICBIN is listed as 3.5 grams saturated fat, whereas butter is listed as 7 grams saturated fat

- both are listed as 0 grams trans fat

- ICBIN is listed as 0 grams cholesterol, whereas butter is listed as 30 mg cholesterol.

First ingredient on the box for ICBIN is vegetable oil blend (soybean oil, palm oil, canola oil, palm kernal oil); and the 2nd listed ingredient is whey (milk).

now, tell me,  which of these products makes it "one molecule from being plastic" ?

 

My question is...... would you rather support a soybean farmer? or a dairy farmer?

Moot question, if you ask me.
