Butter. A girl had to cook me a hamburger at my work once and used margarine while cooking it. NEVER AGAIN!!!!! That hamburger straight up tasted like a fish...It was so strong that I couldn't finish it
Margarine? Isn't that Trans Fats? Partially hydrogenated stuff? Clogs arteries much worse than butter or even lard. Right? Wasn't that what all the fuss was over trans fats?
Only margarine. Never touch butter, unless there's no other choice for bread in a restaurant. Don't need the cholesterol. Some margarine (generally the stick kinds) have transfats, but many of them don't. Margarine is still comparatively healthier than butter since there is less cholesterol and most margarines have higher levels of monosaturated and polyunsatured fats, which can help reduce bad HCL. Generally, unless baking, I use tub margarines of the "healthy heart" variety. Since I'm unwilling to give up pizza and don't cut red meats entirely out of my diet, using margarine instead of butter is a no-brainer for cutting some cholesterol exposure.
