Let's break it down here. When you think about what you have with the two, this is what you get: fat and salt. Well, butter has some protiens, but that is negligible. Both are very similar and at the same time very different. The reason they are both solid at room tempurature is because the fats that compose both compounds are hydrogenated. You get what is caled a saturated fat, named so because the carbon chain in the fat molecule is "saturated" with hydrogen.
Butter is made by the separation and fermentation of milk soids. It is then churned to introduce air to the fat which gives it the appearance you see. When done properly, you get a very appetizing mixture. Margerine is prepared by using vegetable oils, which, except for coconut and palm oils, are not hydrogenated. They are taken and then hydrogenated by methods that are unknown to this author. However, that's a completely different thread. The above has been a valuable marketing tool for margarine manufacturers as they claim for their product to be more healthy for you due the the fact that only vegetable oil is used in their production. So don't think you're getting healthy popcorn at the movies because they pop it with vegetable oil!!! Ha ha, sucka!!! But when you get down to it, you get saturated fats in both forms. So both of which are unhealthy, no questions asked. Several studies have shown that many margarines have trans-fatty acids, which are a byproduct of their production. These are the worst form of fatty acid as they are very hard to digest. Becel, is a margarine that breaks the mold so to speak, as new production tactics are used and trans-fatty acids are not present in its molecular structure. However this all comes down to taste in the end. Your intrepid author is not the first on to state that margarine pales in comarison to the almighy butter. And, yes I have tried I Can't Believe It's Not Butter and I can tell the difference!!! So butter all the way, for the above mentioned arguments and most importantly, the taste!!! And remember, everything is good in moderation. -Dwight:063: |
