No. Margarine contains oil from canola, sunflower or corn. Margarine is not based on animal fat from milk; butter is.

Where do margarine come from?

Depending on the brand, Margarine is made from different types of oils and greases, with a little bit of coloring and flavoring. Oils are often "Hydrogenated", and that process results in compounds that are not well tolerated by the human metabolism...... Margarine is a fatty solid spread or cooking fat and is a substitute for butter consisting of a blend of hydrogenated vegetable oils mixed with emulsifiers, vitamins, coloring matter, and other ingredients. The process of hydrogenation (used to make the margarine hard and spreadable) causes the margarine to produce trans-fatty acids in the body.


Is cow milk a vegetable?

No, cow milk is not a vegetable, nor is it vegetarian. Vegetables are plants harvested for us humans to eat raw or cooked, they are not things that come from animals. Why else to you think milk has "cow" in front of it? Unless you think that a cow is a plant, which is something different entirely (and clearly an answer from someone seriously misinformed about cows themselves), milk from cows is an animal by-product, not in ANY way a vegetable.
