Please oo NL, i want to fry puffpuff and dough-nut. And my teacher(a baker) advised me to get mangarine instead of butter. Because it has a profitable nutrition to the consumer that will eat it, rather than butter that runs most people stomach. I searched for the difference on Google, but Google was giving me the scientifical difference and how their taste differs. But it is the nutritional benefits that concerns me the most. I cant identify, bakers and nutritionist in the house! What is the nutritional difference between butter and mangarine?

The choice between margarine and butter depends on your dietary needs ¹. Here are some key differences

Butter:
- High in saturated fat
- Rich in dairy fat
- May contain nutrients like vitamin K2, conjugated linoleic acid, butyrate and omega-3
- High in cholesterol
- May increase "bad" LDL cholesterol
- May have limited effects on blood cholesterol levels

Margarine
- High in unsaturated fat
- Made from vegetable oils
- May contain trans fats (though many brands now offer trans-fat-free options)
- May be high in polyunsaturated fat
- May contain plant sterols and stanols
- May be high in omega-6 fat

It's important to note that both butter and margarine can be part of a healthy diet when consumed in moderation. It's also worth considering the type of margarine and the source of the butter, as some options may be healthier than others.

One of them(butter) along with bread was promised to us Igbo people by Tinubu(yes, that drug intoxicated zombie) while the other(margarine and not "Mangarine" ) was not. By the way, we are still waiting for our bread and butter.

iichidodo:
Butter is churned from milk, whether cow or goat milk. Margarine is butter which has undergone ionisation with metallic positrons like ferrous oxide or bauxite...

I thought margarine is produced by hydrogenation of vegetable oil?
Ionisation with metallic...?

What is the difference between "spread" and "margarine"?

Both can be same...spread is made specifically for ready to eat food while margarine can be used for baking, cooking generally.

Okay.
So what are you trying to point out?
Butter is fake?

You all assume you are eating butter,
But it is bread spread.

I am not sure real butter is sold here in Nigeria

Only foreign brands I have seen sell actual butter.

What we have here is mostly bread spread and margarine.

Butter is made from animal fat (milk) while margarine is made from vegetable oil.

Margarine was touted as the healthy alternative some years ago, however that info is now outdated. Butter is more beneficial than margarine because it is natural, not minding saturated or unsaturated fats.

HOWEVER in our environment where most people are not used to drinking fresh milk and where storage of milk products can be precarious, margarine is the safer option which is what your teacher was driving at.

I don't eat bread, it's trash. The flour used in baking is number 1 gut destroyer. If I ever to decide to start eating bread, it will be sourdough bread, baked by myself or I use coconut flour.

So people don't know the difference, even in the comment section

Ok.... butter is the healthiest choice, and the best baking choice, especially if you use the type that melts and is covered in a foil kind of packaging that's always in freezer. It's byproduct of diary directly... butter had low fat and normal, salted and unsalted, many choices tailored to your needs and makes texture,taste and health far better

Magarine is from seed oils
Why should u be eating oils thinking its better
