Blackwater 53393 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 The food industry has proven time and again the the general public is easily misled, (I won’t say stupid, but....) One of their latest efforts is the repackaging and rebranding of vegetable oil based spreads from “margarine” to PLANT BUTTER!! I mean, REALLY??? C’MON!!!

Cat Brules Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 That sounds pretty good! Let’s you add more fats, sugar and flavor, as a cookie spread. Cat Brules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be yummy spread on some flourless bread and washed down with a tall glass of almond milk...... ........ right up there with plant-based meat . AKA meatless meat.

Could you use this as dip for chips...or Kit-Kat bars...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantankerous Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 I would imagine it's incredible on anything you might put it on but so for I found it works just fine on a spoon. Yeah. I'm THAT guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Coffinmaker Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Wow Margarine was never intended for human consumption. It is the result of a failed government project to find a very low temperature lubricant. Added color and flavoring. Icky Foo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like I recall someone doing an experiment with margarine and butter and barn flies. Somebody placed a stick of margarine and a stick of butter side-by-side in a barn. Within 24 hours the stick of butter was gone and there was not one fly on the margarine. Apparently flies know what food is when people don't.

Loophole LaRue, SASS #51438 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 If you fly Delta, you are probably familiar with with Lotus European biscuit cookies, sold under the name "Biscoff"; they are served on Delta. I am addicted to those things; bet you can't eat just one (package). Lotus also makes a cookie butter product under the same label, with the same flavor; either smooth or crunchie. Oh, man, cookie butter spread on the same flavor cookie; mmmmmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allie Mo, SASS No. 25217 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Anyone remember Covert Bailey? IIRC he equated margarine with Vaseline. I couldn't find the quote; but I did find this.
