Butter and Margarine

Butter is an emulsion of of dairy fat, protein, and water. It is used to cook with, as well as a condiment. It adds a rich creamy flavor to foods. When vegetable fats are used instead of milk fats, it makes a product known as margarine. Some margarines are healthier than butter due to the types of fats used in the emulsion.

An occasional lick should not be harmful to a dog in the long run; however, grease and fats in most forms (especially bacon grease) can eventually overwhelm a dog's liver and cause liver disease.

How many calories in one piece of toast with one pat of butter on it?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It actually depends on the bread, but it's usually around seventy. The first person was really odd, he or she said 30. That's crazy, unless you're talking about half a piece of toast. Of course, if you add spreads, like butter or jam, the whole thing changes. Toasting doesn't change the calorie rate, so look on the nutrition facts on the package.

Old fashioned type of margarine?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Came with a separate package of a coloring agent which you had to add and mix in yourself. Yellow margarine could not be purchased. Butter was yellow, margarine was white. Lard was white. Yellow was a premium product and laws were passed to insure that you couldn't peddle lard or vegetable oils as the Real Thing.

Do you churn butter or turn butter?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It took about a hour.

You are supposed to churn above 60 dF, this was refrigerated, fresh (unpasteurized) cream.

I filled a quart jar 4/3 full and shook it while I watched the last half of the movie "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang". I had butter before the exit music.

The change is sudden and dramatic.

How do you scant butter?

Asked by Wiki User

You might put a very tiny amount of butter on your toast, and describe it as toast with scant butter. Perhaps you are afraid of getting fat if you eat too much butter, or perhaps you are just out of butter, who knows.

Is one year old butter safe to eat?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Honestly, I would not eat it. It's a waste, but dispose PROPERLY of the butter. (Garbage, melt it...) Get some new butter. It would not be safe, no.

I would luv to add that if you think about it how many germs grow on butter (if not in the fridge and still if it is) in a day....just think about how many would grow in 365 days.

What are the disadvantages of butter?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Butter made from cows that are fed grain, like the typical cow that is fed in America is not good for you. All the dairy from these cows is basically toxic to your body.

Butter made from cows that feed on grass and allowed to roam free range in pastures is VERY GOOD FOR YOU. It contains lots of butyric acid and nourish the cells of your large intestines. Butter has been used for centuries and is a stable fat made from cream with a wide range of short to medium and odd chain fatty acids as well as typical saturated, monounsaturated and some polyunsaturated fatty acids. About 15% short/medium saturated, 50% other saturated, and 30% monounsaturated fatty acids. Butter is also recognized as a great source for antimicrobial fats. It contains short chain fatty acids such as lauric acid (good for the thyroid) that disable many pathogenic viruses and other organisms, glycolipids that have anti-infective properties, and conjugated lioleic acid (CLA) that has anticarcinogenic properties (anti-cancer). Butter is definitely a fat with healthly properties.

Margarine is a fat product that is about 20% non-fat portion of a combination, water and salts of other solids and 80% fat. It is made by the hydrogenation process to alter various oils composition. When you put nickel in the oil and then bubble hydrogen through the oil, the weak double bonds in the oil break apart and the hydrogen saturates the molecule making the end product more solid. This garbage, when consumed, causes inflammation in the arteries and this is what causes hardening of the arteries.

Margarine was the brain child of the food industry when Ancel Keys promoted his "lipid hypothesis" that has been more than debunked by real science, showing thatsaturated fats are NOT bad for you. In fact, your brain is basically saturated fats and your heart runs on saturated fats. When you eat too much protein in your diet, your body converts the excess protein to saturated fats that are stored for later use as energy.

Butter is GOOD and Margarine is BAD. ALL of the margarine and so called "healthy spreads" are very bad for you and those that promote this junk have NO clue what they are talking about.

EDIT: People telling you that fat is not good for you to eat have been indoctrinated and need to get an education instead. Fat is where the body gets it's "SUSTAINED ENERGY" and if you become deficient in fat, your body cannot make endocrine cells.LOW FAT diets are very destructive to the body. In fact, the fat tissue in the body acts like an endocrine gland because it secretes Leptin, a hormone, that regulates the way the body utilizes insulin and glucagon and works in conjunction with the hypothalamus gland to regulate your metabolism. This is why so many people plateau when on a typical low fat diet and can't lose weight even when they reduce their calories greatly.

Eat lots and lots of butter from grass fed cows and you can actually lose weight doing this when combined with eating the right oils. Butter and Coconut oil are the only two fats that do NOT require bile to break them down and so they will give you not only sustained energy, but will go into your system quickly when eaten for more immediate energy. I personally would recommend butter over margarine, margarine has way to much fat.

1 kg of ghee eual to how much liter of ghee?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you make butter straight from whole milk you will need 20 litres of milk to get 1 Kg of butter

You then heat this 1 Kg butter to get Ghee which would be 1/2Kg of pure ghee.

So 1 Kg of pure ghee may require 40 litres of milk

Can you feed your hamster Jif peanut butter?

Don't give a hamster regular chocolate made for human consumption. A hamster's instinct is to store the chocolate in its cheek pouches, where the animal's body heat will melt it, and potentially choke the hamster.

If a cat always lands on its feet and a piece of toast always lands butter side down What happens if you tie a piece of toast butter side UP to the back of a cat?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Then the cat would be paralized and it would go into a massive depression foaming up in the mouth and having massive orgasims, that is what will happen there will be no butter left

PS what is an "orgasim?" or being "paralized?"

No way dude. If you buttered the cat's feet it would still land on its feet, but if you butter some other part of the cat, things get more complicated.

let us assume the cat is a rectangular prism, and can land on either its head, its butt, its back, its feet, or one of its two sides. (6 total possibilities) Since butter and cats' feet have equal probability power, (100% in both cases) When you combine them both into one object the probability is split.

One hypothesis advanced by the scientific community is that the cat won't land at all. This hypothesis works out in theory, but in practice almost never happens. Today's theories have no place in the realm of extra-probability. (probabilities over 100%. This is a field where you need more than an infinite amount of trials to come to a conclusion.)

Do note that not only will the cat not land at all in an extra-probability dimension, but that the cat would not land at all also in a frictionless vacuum, with the effects of gravity negated. This simulates an extra-probabilistic environment, and so would result in the same result.

Another hypothesis, more accurate in normal-probabilistic practice, is that the cat will land in-between the butter and his feet. If experimented many times, there turns out to be an approximately normal distribution of landing results in-between the feet and the butter. This means that most often the cat will land exactly between the butter and his feet, but also will sometimes land other places, including on the butter and on his feet.
