    Olive oil spray for me most of the time.
    But butter for scrambled eggs because YUM.

    I used coconut oil for a long time, but am really not all that keen on the flavour. I still have a spray to use up unfortunately. And probably a jar at the back of the cupboard but I can always just use that on my skin.

    Good olive oil or avocado oil for things that need a tiny drizzle.

    Fat is an important macro, so I don't mind the extra calories that comes with a nice pat of butter. I think it really does improve the flavour of many things, especially eggs! Yum.

    I usually use butter, coconut oil, olive oil, or a mixture of them.

    Are you on a cholesterol diet or are you eating this way to lose weight? I eat plenty of whole eggs, cook with lard, and lose weight just fine. Since margarine is made from oil I'm not sure how much you will save in calories or fat over oil. If you are trying to eat low fat try a spray. I use them on my baking pans because they don't add anything, but do keep food from sticking. A quick spritz should be under 5 calories.
