Yep. For years we were told to avoid butter because of the cholesterol.
Most of us, myself included, used margarine when we could and used butter
with a lot of guilt. Now you can have the best of both worlds by using
butter. It has the flavor and melting characteristics that are good for
baking and it contains none of the trans-fats that result from the
hydrogenation process. I just put 10 pounds of butter in the freezer
because it was on deep discount for the holidays.
