The difference between butter and margarine....You say you like eating

plastic

 

Margarine was originally manufactured to fatten turkeys; when it killed the

turkeys the people who had put all the money into the research wanted a

payback so they put their heads together to figure out what to do with this

product to get their money back. It was a white substance with no food appeal

so

they added the yellow coloring and sold it to people to use in place of

butter. How do you like it? They have come out with some clever new

flavorings.

 

DO YOU KNOW...the difference between margarine and butter?

 

Both have the same amount of calories.

 

Butter is slightly higher in saturated fats at 8 grams compared to 5 grams.

 

Eating margarine can increase heart disease in women by 53% over eating the

same amount of butter, according to a recent Harvard Medical Study.

 

Eating butter increases the absorption of many other nutrients in other

foods.

 

Butter has many nutritional benefits where margarine has a few only because

they are added!

 

Butter tastes much better than margarine and it can enhance the flavors of

other foods.

 

Butter has been around for centuries where margarine has been around for

less than 100 years.

 

And now, for Margarine...

 

Very high in trans fatty acids.

 

Triple risk of coronary heart disease.

 

Increases total cholesterol and LDL (this is the bad cholesterol)

 

Lowers HDL cholesterol, (the good cholesterol)

 

Increases the risk of cancers by up to five fold.

 

Lowers quality of breast milk.

 

Decreases immune response.

 

Decreases insulin response.

 

And here is the most disturbing f act....

 

Margarine is ONE MOLECULE away from being PLASTIC...

 

This fact alone was enough to have me avoiding margarine for life and

anything else that is hydrogenated (this means hydrogen is added, changing the

molecular structure of the substance).

 

You can try this yourself:

 

Purchase a tub of margarine and leave it in your garage or shaded area.

Within a couple of days you will note a couple of things: * no flies, not even

those pesky fruit flies will go near it (that should tell you something) * it

does not rot or smell differently because it has no nutritional value, nothing

will grow on it even those teeny weenie microorganisms will not a find a

home to grow. Why? Because it is nearly plastic. Would you melt your

Tupperware and spread that on your toast?

According to my mother, it was originally illegal to color margarine yellow

so it was sold in its natural grey color with a packet of food dye. When she

was a little girl, my mother would have the chore of kneading the dye into

the five pound blob of margarine bought for the family.

This is true - I remember my mother and grandmother talking about kneading

the dye in. There were 6 kids in my mother's family and they'd fight about

who got to do it - they thought it was fun!

More odd food trivia.

 

 

 

Kool-Aid used to be called KoolAde. " Ade " comes from a greek word that means

" drink made of. " This was used to determine that " KoolAde " was illegally

named so it was changed to have an " Aid " at the end.
