About Margarine-like spread, SMART BALANCE Omega Plus Spread (with plant sterols & fish oil)
A margarine-like spread is a soft, spreadable product made mainly from vegetable oils and water, formulated as a lower-fat, dairy-free alternative to both butter and traditional margarine. These tub spreads usually carry less total fat than stick margarine or butter because water and air are blended in, which makes them easy to spread straight from the refrigerator but generally too soft and wet for baking.
They are popular for spreading on toast, bread, and vegetables, and many are fortified with vitamins A and D or enriched with heart-focused ingredients such as plant sterols marketed to help lower cholesterol. Being plant-based, they contain no cholesterol, and better versions are free of the partially hydrogenated oils that create trans fats. Flavor and saltiness vary by brand, and light or reduced-fat versions cut calories further.
Check the label for the fat, sodium, and any added sterols, and keep the tub tightly covered in the refrigerator, using it by the date stamped on the package.
