Margarine

[Kasmah]

Hi! I have a quick question regarding Margarine. From what I've read margarine can be really bad if you get one with the Trans-Fatty Acids? in them.

If you get one without it, is margarine o.k.? In terms of healthy?

I am currently using one without the Trans Fatty things in it.

Thanks,
Kasmah

I wouldn't say margarine in any form is particularly healthy, however, I would definitely buy the kind that is non-hydrogenated.

We use Earth Balance. I try to use it sparingly. It is great for baking though. :)

Thanks Erin, I will try that kind. I would only be using it sparingly also.

IT IS SO GREAT to have somewhere to go ask informed vegans questions. I don't feel so alone now. Although all my vegan books are great ( I have tons), it's nice to have someone with experience to help you out.

Thanks again!
