Butter or margarine

Butter is a dairy product made by churning cream or milk, resulting in a rich, creamy fat used in cooking, baking, and as a spread. It has a natural flavor and contains saturated fats.

Margarine is a butter substitute made from vegetable oils and sometimes animal fats, designed to mimic butter’s texture and taste. It’s often used as a spread or in cooking and baking and can be made with healthier unsaturated fats.
