I know some dairy farmers in Manitoba and Saskatchewan who love that law.

Butter is better for us anyway[latest studies show this].I'm for anything that helps our farmers and ranchers. I remember when margarine first appeared in the stores and we had to use little packets of dye to colorize it.

It's the hard margerine that's bad.......
But why would you use edible oil instead of butter anyway? Butter tastes good. margerine is just plain ol' disgusting!
Imagine how much butter you'd have to put on your toast inorder for it to do you harm! Margerine requires a whole lot less to do you harm........

Can I get you to give testimony to Mrs. Rev, Twila. Trying to get butter around here is like pulling your own teeth.
I really miss butter. We used to get it right out of the cow, as often as not. It was usually an accident...Grandma would let one of us whip the cream then get distracted. Suddenly the cream would be butter. She'd just toss in some salt and a mistake turned into a whole new creation.
Try that with the cream you buy in stores.

You mean as opposed to the way butter is made? Have you ever been on a tour of a dairy plant?
When I consider our food production and distribution systems, I'm pretty surprised we aren't all dead .

Margerine is gross crap. Butter is awsome. Whats the big deal about the colour anyways?

The worst crap is that"I Can't Believe It's not Butter" brand.Only a total cretin would find any semblance of butter in it's taste! BTW,I prefer the taste of margarine.

We had some of that at the studio where I used to work, Missile. We took the shot of it then it just kind of sat there for a while. One day the food stylist saw it in the fridge and tossed it out...it was hilarious. She didn't even open it, just threw it away.

Our local dairy used to produce a 20/80 blend[20% butter and the rest margarine] Not a bad product for those on a budget..didn't mind the taste of that
