Is vegetable oil spread healthy or not?
When I make Macaroni and Cheese (from a box), the recipe calls for 1/4 cup of butter or margarine. I've been using a half stick of the Imperial spread: [url]https://www.foodservicedirect.com/imperial-regular-65-percent-vegetable-oil-spread-16-ounce-24-per-case-21389169.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIld6F8a6_5AIVAYzICh3f6QzqEAQYAyABEgLlsvD_BwE[/url]
The stuff I get says 0 grams of trans fat, and yet I keep hearing that the stick form of this stuff is high in trans fat. So, does it have trans fat or not? The ingredients say nothing about partially hydroginated oils. It says Vegetable oil blend (soybean and palm oil, palm kernel oil) Total fat is 7g, Sat. fat is 2.5g
I was looking into alternatives such as olive oil, but now I don't know if it's really necessary. The sticks of vegetable oil spread is much more convenient to use.
