Yes. However, you will be sacrificing taste. No you cannot, MARG Is oil based , not good to use in certain types of cooking . Butter is better for frying , and other ways of cooking . Eg Bread and Butter pudding is YUK if used Marg . But hey , Its our own personal Tastes ,that count . Its like should you use skimmed or semi skimmed or full fat milk . Or Goose fat or Corn oil to roast our potatoes !!! No you cannot, MARG Is oil based , not good to use in certain types of cooking . Butter is better for frying , and other ways of cooking .

∙ 14y agoDepends on the recipe and how big of a factor the butter is. If it is a large part of the flavor you can use margarine, but the end product will not be a good. If there is another dominant flavor or if it is just the shortening in the recipe such as a cake it shouldn't make any difference.

∙ 13y agoYou can use margarine in place of butter. But if the recipe is for baked goods, normally you have to use sweet (unsalted) butter, and the margarine might be salted. Usually even cake recipes have some salt in them (like maybe 1/2 tsp), so just make sure that if you use salted margarine to replace sweet butter, omit the salt from the recipe.
