"Margarine is but one molecule from being PLASTIC..... (This fact alone was
enough to have me avoiding margarine for life and anything else that is
hydrogenated, this means hydrogen is added changing the molecular structure of
the food.)

You can try this for yourself, purchase a tub of margarine and leave it in your
garage or shaded area, within a couple of days you will note a couple of
things, no flies, not even those pesky fruit flies will go near it, (that
should tell you something) it does not rot, smell differently... Because it has
no nutritional value, nothing will grow on it, even those teeny weeny
microorganisms will not find a home to grow... Why?

Because it is nearly plastic. Would you melt your Tupperware and spread that on
your toast?..."
