Having Worked at Unilevers Premier Margarine Factory in the UK for 1 Year, as a Management Trainee, and then in Sri Lanka Managing Margarine Manufacture, I can safely admit that what you are about to read is true!!










Pass The Butter ... Please.



This is interesting
. .. .



Margarine
was originally manufactured to fatten turkeys. When it killed the turkeys, the people who had put all the money into the research wanted a payback so they put their heads together to figure out what to do with this product to get their money back.


It was a white substance with no food appeal so they added the yellow coloring and sold it to people to use in place of butter. How do you like it? They have come out with some clever new flavorings...



DO YOU KNOW.
..The difference between margarine and butter?



Read on to the end...gets very interesting!




Both have the same amount of calories.


Butter is slightly higher in saturated fats at 8 grams; compared to 5 grams for margarine.



Eating
margarine can increase heart disease in women by 53%over eating the same amount of butter, according to a recent Harvard Medical Study.na



Eating
butter increases the absorption of many other nutrients in other foods.


Butter has many nutritional benefits where margarine has a few and only because they are added!



Butter
tastes much better than margarine and it can enhance the flavors of other foods.



Butter
has been around for centuries where margarine has been around for less than 100 years.




And now, for Margarine...



Very High in Trans
fatty acids.



Triples risk of coronary
heart disease ...



Increases total cholesterol
and LDL (this is the bad cholesterol) and lowers HDL cholesterol, (the good cholesterol)



Increases the risk of cancers up to five times..




Lowers quality of
breast milk



Decreases immune response.




Decreases
insulin response.



And here's the most disturbing fact...HERE IS THE PART THAT IS VERY INTERESTING!




Margarine
is but ONE MOLECULE away from being PLASTIC... and shares 27 ingredients with PAINT.




These facts alone were 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 substance).




Open a tub of margarine and leave it open in your garage or shaded area. Within a couple of days you will notice 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 or smell differently because it has
no nutritional value; nothing will grow on it. Even those teeny weeny microorganisms will not a find a home to grow. Why? Because it is nearly plastic . Would you melt your Tupperware and spread that on your toast?



Share This With Your Friends...


(If you want to butter them up')!





Chinese Proverb:


When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others.




Pass the BUTTER PLEASE
