A few years ago, when everyone started being more "fat conscious", and large food companies became more "profit conscious", the formulas for margarine started containing more water. Have you ever noticed when you melt a stick of margarine how much water is in the bottom of the cup or pan? It's not really margarine anymore, but "spread". I don't even buy margarine anymore because I refuse to pay that much per pound for water, so I buy butter. But if you will notice, old recipes don't turn out the same anymore! |
