Default Butter vs. Margarine (let's start again)

My mom always used margarine when my brothers and I were kids because it
was less expensive. Butter was reserved for holidays or special
dinners. Those were the occasions when she usually burned the dinner
rolls for which the butter was intended.

Back in the day margarine was less expensive. I doubt Mom wondered
about whether or not it was good for us. The disparity in prices
finally leveled off. I now only buy butter, not margarine.

How about you?
