Butter substitute
18 Answers
I have started a diet last monday and doing not too badly, but has anyone come across a butter substitute that tastes like butter (not marg) and you can use for cooking as well? I'm afraid that that is one of my diet fall downs, butter and cheese. I've tried "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" (I can!)
and most of the Flora range, but nothing seems to come close.

I started using it when I began with SW and still managed to enjoy the taste of butter and lose over 2.5 stones in 5 months (+ another 5 lbs since I reached target). And I eat it on sandwiches.
The family would walk over glass for my mashed potatoes with Dromona in it.
However, I have never tried baking with it - but no news there, as I'm useless.
As O-G says, just use less butter.
Try Babybel light and Laughing Cow light cheese as well.
