I Can't Believe It's Not Butter - 400g for 39p.
Tesco has 500g for £1, so this one's better value.

He means that some margerines have hydrogen atoms added during a process hydrogenation - but at such miniscule levels that it poses no significant risk to humans. You would literally have to eat 2kg's of marg a day for a long period for the hydrogen to kill you off - by which time you'd probably be dead anyway (from eating that much marg!!)
Hydrogenation does however form trans-fats... Not great but again, in moderation wont do too much harm. Both butter and marg both end up having the same amount of fat - but marg has trans fat due to the hydrogen infusion process.
Not all marg is hydrogenated... Check labels for hydrogenated oils etc...
Marg also preferential for lower cholesterol/ low chol diets as... For ovvo reason.
Marg being close to plastic?? Yes... Potentially - if youre incredibly bad at chemistry... Graphite is incredibly close to diamond... Now where's my HB pencil?

Apparently one element from being plastic. Just a bit scary!

Water is one element away from being bleach. Hope that's not too scary. :wink:

I can't believe it's not butter because it isn't!
I wouldn't put this **** inside my mouth. 'Real' butter is the best. Spreads are all ****. The ingredient in butter is ... butter. Look at the list of ingredients in this crap. Can they get them all on the pack?
Years ago we had full cream milk and butter and fat (not a fatty in sight, except Billy Bunter) ...then from the 90s we had so-called 'healthy eating' and skimmed milk and 'spreads' (oh ffs! spreads, yuk!) and what happened?
OBESITY RULES!

According to WHO data, the prevalence of obesity is about 24% and I don't think that can be called a very low rate considering the UK's rate is around 26% and called an obesity crisis.

Have you tried the lemon version? I can't believe it's not bitter. Disappointed with the premium version - I can't believe it's not better. And the deep fried version? I can't believe it's not batter. As for the version sold in Northern Ireland - I can't believe it's not botter. With apologies to all.

A typo? That's all you've got? A typo? Seriously?
I say buy 2 tubs of 400g - take your 500g and save the rest for a rainy day - it'll come in handy when you're bouncing atound an asylum swapping butter for 'favours'.
Wow... Bizarre.

Artifical solidified chemicals, why would anyone eat this?

You should consider that everything is made of chemicals. Whether they are natural or artificial shouldn't be used to decide whether or not they are good or bad.
Vaccines - artificial and very good.
Formaldehyde - natural chemical, carcinogen - found in pears. :P

Not sure what he was trying to say. Someone's only happy if it's a 500g pack?
Opening post
Tesco has 500g for £1, so this one's better value.
