Best Answer

In the belief that butter was unhealthy because of the saturated fat, margarine was invented to create a butter-like substance without that kind of fat. Recently, however, it has been determined that margarine often contains trans fat, which is considerably worse than saturated fat, so you're best just using small amounts of butter.
