I'm not a big fan of either stuff. If I have a toast, I'll skip the
butter or spread and go directly to the peanut butter and/or jelly. My
wife likes to grease up her toast before adding jelly. That's kind of
creepy. I don't have problems with oil but to me, oils are mostly for
frying food or baking. I use a lot of oil for frying.
