Is margarine really one molecule away from plastic?
No margarine is not one molocule away from plastic. Margarine is made from animal fats. You would not just be able to add a molocule to margarine and it would turn into plastic. Margarine is NOT made from animal fat, butter is. Margarine is made from vegetable oil, water, and salt with chemicals and preservatives. Whether it is exactly one molecule away from plastic or not doesn't really matter. What matters is that it is hydrogenated and causes heart disease. The story about taking it and placing it in a very warm environment (your garage) and letting it sit for a month or two is a good way to test it. Not only will flies not bother it, it won't spoil! Why would any human want to ingest such a dangerous compound? I only use Promise or Smart Balance as they are formulated differently and are not hydrogenated. But as with all fats, I use them in moderation. I occasionally use organic butter as well.

Can you use margarine in cheesecake instead of butter. When mixing margarine with digestive biscuits the base now goes soft. Has something been added to margarine now which makes this happen?
Yes, you can use margarine in cheesecake instead of butter, but it can affect the texture. Margarine often contains more water than butter, which may cause the digestive biscuit base to become softer. This is likely due to the added emulsifiers and moisture in margarine, which can alter the consistency of the crust. To counteract this, consider using less margarine or adding more biscuits to maintain a firmer base.
