Can you help settle a debate please?!

I’m a butter person…salted at that.

A friend of mine swears by flora…not just any margarine it has to be flora….

Which do you preferred and if it’s margarine…which brand? Don’t they all taste the same?!?!

I’m definitely salted butter. Way too posh for margarine - though Mum always has flora in her fridge.

Your friend is right! It has to be Flora light, problem is it's been sold out in every shop I got to for the past 2 weeks!

Definitely butter.

We didn't used to buy anything other than Lurpak. Tried Aldi's Norpak and it's just the same

Meh, as with most things food, I'm not fussed, I'll eat and enjoy most things. Real butter is nice but it can be a pain to spread.

Butter for me, always salted. I use Lurpak spreadable for sandwiches for kids, as they prefer it, and butter is always rock hard in the mornings for lunch making

Butter, salted, French or English from grass fed cattle.

Margarine is a factory processed trans fat which is extremely bad for humans, even the olive oil ones which typically has 5-10 mils of olive oil per 250g tub.

The 'lite' ones are just emulsified with water.

Norfuck! / Lincolnshire

I had this conversation this morning …..

10g of tesco buttery is 50 calories

10g anchor salted butter is 74 calories

I like to taste my butter but I guess a round of toast is a lot more than 10g by my spreading technique

I love butter!

Butter all the way - margarine isn't even a comparable food item - I'm not convinced it even qualifies as food - its basically spreadable plastic!

The people that eat it probably also buy skimmed milk!

I love butter and buy whatever has £1 off

Currently using Anchor. Often buy unsalted but my friend says it's tasteless so add salt when he comes over .

I find margarine repulsive stuff..

This is S’s type of thread apparently as she’s traumatised when she looks in the fridge and there’s no butter and I suggest popping to the corner shop where ‘the stuff they do isn’t real butter’
