As the mother of a 1 year old with multiple food allergies (one of
which is dairy) I know that Fleischmann's Light in the tub does not
contain any dairy! (or soy which is a good thing to us) Also, the
Fleischmann's Unsalted stick margarine is dairy free, but the website
isn't advertising it as transfat free.

Spending a little bit of time on the website, it looks like all their
soft margarine in the tub is transfat free now but only the Light and
the Unsalted are free of all dairy.

I'm not sure if they're playing the old <1 gram = 0 gram but not
necessarily transfat FREE....

Be warned, finding the Fleischmann's Light in the tub can be
tough...seems it's regional. Plenty of stock here in Rochester. Some
other allergy families order it online at Amazon.
