What is your favorite butter substitute? I am looking for a healthier butter option and I know margarine isn't that great! Thanks!

    I use the I Can't Beleive its Not Butter Spray. A few sprays have almost no calories, but I love real butter too, and try to make room in the calories for that on occasion.:flowerforyou:

    I sometimes use smart balance. But I prefer to use real butter. I don't care for all the chemicals in the subtitutes. I also use olive oil. It's great to dip bread into instead of buttering it.
