I've been a margarine user literally forever. There was a thread a while back that discussed margarine vs. butter. Several people recommended Kerrygold Butter, so I decided to give it a try.

I can't believe that I've been missing out so long. This stuff is AMAZING. Sometimes I just want to lick it.

Thank you so much, MFP. My life is now complete.

    I only use Kerrygold, even though I live in Wisconsin (dairy country). I so much prefer European butter over American.

    It's Irish butter - though that doesn't mean a lot to me, because I've never had American butter.

    European butter has higher fat content, I believe.

    Kerrygold is lovely, as is Plugra.

    That's hilarious.

    I grew up on margarine, so I didn't really know what was out there. Now I'm wondering what else I've missed.

    Unfortunately we don't have that where I live :( (hicktown) I've always wanted to try it though. I do usually use butter rather then margarine. I'm making my own this weekend since I need buttermilk and I also can't get that where I live. So I'll make butter, and will end up with some buttermilk! win!

    Mmm Butter...everytime I see a post on butter I am reminded of the Last Tango In Paris... NOW I haven't actually seen the movie.. BUT my sister took my 70 Year old Grandmother to that film when it was in the theatre... SO I have heard there's a novel way of serving butter up :)

    why would you be scared of butter...also many margarine's just have a bunch of hydrogenated oils (trans-fats) which are really the only fats you should truly avoid. From a nutritional standpoint, butter is a much better choice than margarine.

    I buy local butter and would never go to margarine. Kerrygold is just too expensive for me.
