Absolutely, in fact, there are entire diets based solely off of crisco shortening. Crisco does not contain certain nutrients so vitamin pills are advised. Over consumption of crisco can lead to large fat deposits in the lower back.

What is crisco?
Crisco lists it's ingredients as hydrogenated cottonseed and soybean oils, mono- and diglycerides.Check out the wiki site http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crisco for the whole story on how it was first invented by proctor and gamble as a cheaper substitute to animal fats for making candles. It was the first all vegetable oil shortening but it was intended for making candles. When electricity became widely available the demand for candles was reduced and that's when they decided to sell it as shortening... to eat.

Are butter flavor crisco and butter the same thing?
No. The Crisco is made from plants. Butter is made from the cream in cow's milk.

Butter is a natural product that adds to ones health in terms of calories and vitamin and enzymatic components that the body can use.Shortening has no health benefits whatsoever.It was developed as an alternative to Lard- which is clarified and solidified animal fat usually from rendered beef fat or pork fat. Duck fat is a current fad (2014) and is made from rendering the thick fatty skin on ducks.It is richer than other animal fats and has its own flavour components which are removed from other manufactured lard products .
Can I replace 1 stick of butter in cookies instead of 1 stick of Crisco?
Yes. The cookie texture will be the same, although the taste will not be as buttery. For a cookie with good flavor like oatmeal cinnamon raisin or chocolate chip, you won't notice the difference. You could also use unsalted butter instead of Crisco if you don't have any health concerns about butter. Butter flavoring works, but is a substitute flavoring, and real butter as an ingredient has better flavor than substitute flavorings.

Can you substitute oil for shortening in a cake recipe?
Yes, but the results might not be the same. Liquid oil and solid shortening have slightly different properties. You might need to use slightly less oil for similar results, when "creaming" shortening the results do not work for oil, but this step would be dispensed with when using oil. Butter or lard, which shortening was designed to replace, will get the same results as shortening.
