Normally we eat that expensive stuff which allegedly zaps bad cholesterol.
Now I'm in the Fatherland I find that the bread is too nice to use spread. Do you think it's healthier to eat the spread or better to give it a miss? After all it is just fat and oil.

Can't help you Jer, I use butter 
Tuck into the bread and give the spread a miss. If you're worried about zapping the bad cholesterol aren't there special drinks for that? Or lots of oily fish (I think). If bread is really nice I think butter/margerine often spoils it TBH.
Enjoy your holiday.
I thank you!
I can also now reveal that I have zero tolerance for sea filth, oily or otherwise.
I don't like butter,I use a spread.

Same.....
I use Olivio spreads or butter.
Oh and an interesting fact on Q.I.It's illegal now to use the word margarine for spreads.You won't see it on tubs of spreads or adverts.

I think porridge is supposed to be good for it too? 
Yes I think porridge is good and isn't there a range of drinks? Benecol?
A generous spreading of porridge on your pumpernickel, then?

Every time I hear the word 'margarine' I think of Homer Simpson's song to Marge when he was going through his Rock period

skip the margarine and waste calories in an ice cream parlour

I prefer butter.
I use LowLow for most things but can't resist some real butter every few months.
Id prefer to eat butter than marg but I hate that it doesnt spread easily. Even the spreadable butters are not that spreadable. So instead I use utterly butterly.

Never buy into these tests

Just leave the proper butter out of the fridge
If the butter is too hard to spread, I normally give up and just eat the butter.

In a wee butter tray with a lid.....like my granny used to have. Spread it on thick cut hot toast or crumpets :drool:
