Depends on what. I use butter in all cooking and baking, but to "butter" bread just to eat (like dinner rolls etc) I use margarine. I put margarine in my oatmeal um.. Yeah that's all I can think of that I use it for.

Butter my husband is allergic to soy. 99% of margarine contains soy. For those trying to eliminate dairy even margarine contains milk in it. I discovered this when we had to eliminate dairy for ds2.

Butter is also better for baking and in my opinion tastes better as well. I would rather have a small amount of the real thing than a lot of the fake stuff.

I grew up with margarine as my mother eschewed everything made from a cow. Then, I went to culinary school for baking and pastry arts and discovered how awesome butter actually is. :-)

Butter. I can't eat margarine now, knowing what I know. I grew up with margarine in the house, but I prefer the taste of butter anyway.
