I can't believe it, this whole time, I was confused. I thought it was the Smart Balance regular that was safe and the Smart Balance Light that was bad. I guess it is a good thing I don't use butter often. I will have to put it on my shopping list for this weekend to actually buy the right one. Thanks for saving me!

The whole "light" thing throws me off all the time.... in MOST cases... "light" = artificial sweeteners!

I think a few others have suggested it as well. It is low in fat -- non-hydrogenated - and dairy free!

...as long as it's trigger free it's safer than any butter substitute as it's obviously lower fat! You should watch this atm as you're trying to be so careful.

Have you tried cooking it in some chicken bouillon? My daughter eats it that way a lot, and I've tasted it, and it's good. When we first started making it, she used to like margarine in it, but now she prefers some types of pasta without the margarine, just the broth and, of course, a little salt. It gives it a better flavor.

Have you tried low-fat trigger-free mayo or is it the eggy-ness of mayo in general that turns your tum?
And btw, in that case I'd go for the olive oil instead of butter sub. Measure it out in teaspoons so you don't use much, but you don't need to. Remember that as we don't have much fat in our diet we should try and make sure that as much of it as possible is good fats.

I can't ever seem to find a mayo (low fat or regular) that doesn't contain whole eggs. I got lucky, and found something called Vegenaise...I don't use mayo often, but when I do, it does the trick. Its a totally animal-product free substitute. Anyone ever try it? I think it actually is good, even though it creeps me out a bit...
