What's wrong with butter!!!! Fancy spreading something made from wood on your bread just cos some tv star says it is ok :-))) Seriously, I cannot understand the low fat message at all. To achieve the low fat rating they have to pump it full of chemicals and sugar...or even worse, sweeteners. I believe that the reason other countries have a far higher survival rate than this country is because they eat proper food that is closer to its original state. This county is so unhealthy because they don't know what proper food is!!!! Convenience food, bung it in the microwave and eat it.......no way for me!!!! If you eat sensibly, meat and three veg per day, then I don't believe you will come to any harm. For goodness sake, you can cut the fat off a pork chop!!! You don't have to slap a knob of butter on your vegetables. There is no way on earth I will eat margarine, let alone that rubbish they call Benecol. Another big con that, in a few years time, someone will expose as being designed to earn the company that produces it massive profits.

Roz, I agree, I do and I eat home cooked food and abhor the rubbish in the supermarket freezer chests. BUT I also love freshly baked bread from the local baker ( I really miss my mother-in-law for her bread) and I was told nay advised that butter was doing my blood sugar count no good so I changed to non animal fat spread and found that Benecol was tasty, also the new Flora + . my sugar count tonight is 6.3 compared with usually 11 or 12 before. Sometimes the instrument nearly had a coronary itself with 17 or 18.
