I love butter!  I love eating it on some toasted bread and I love cooking with it.  There's nothing like sauteing shrimp in butter. — But then, butter is high in saturated fats.  In fact of the 11 grams of fat in a tablespoon of butter, 7 grams, or nearly 2/3's are… read full review »

I've been using regular Smart Balance for a while and I like it as much as butter.  The store only had the light kind the other day so I got it.  It looked like a coagulated blob and wouldn't melt and it felt odd in your mouth.  My kids refused to eat it.  I guess just because… read full review »

Many margarines are pretty unhealthy, with partially hydrogenated vegetable oils added in.  These are considered "trans fats", the deadliest type of fat.  Smart Balance spreads nicely, tastes good, and melts fairly well on your cinammon toast!  Beware of any product with trans… read full review »

    "Don't eat so much butter!" That is a very common phrase that many of us hear from our elders, especially, for me, my parents. —     The truth is, butter doesn't have to be bad for you. Smart Balance has offered a unique new product to the shelf: a healthier, more fit, type of butter. Perfect! —     For me, when I use this type of butter, it allows me to feel better about the foods I eat. It makes me feel not-so-guilty as I eat that baked potato or piece of toast. —     I would totally recommend Smart Balance… read full review »

Smart Balance is a natural margarine--no hydrogenation, no trans fats.  It's delicious, and it uses a special ratio of oils proven to lower cholesterol.  You can use it exactly as you would butter or margarine, and your food will be delicious.  It costs the same as other margarines--what a cheap investment in your health! — It's basically like Earth Balance, but cheaper and easier to find. —… read full review »
