I never have butter or margarine but if I had to choose it would definitely be real butter as margarine isn't good for you. (even when I do baking for my family I will use real butter, but that is probably because we don't own any margarine as the rest of my family hates it too) I don't know if there is much of a taste difference between the two but I'm assuming, based on the previous replies, that there is quite a big difference.
 
I don't really like margarine, which my family buys "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter", and it taste really fake and gross to me. Butter or really creamy margarine is way better in my opinion.
 
I like butter, but typically eat margarine because butter gives me stomach issues.
 
Definitely butter. Margarine is easier to spread, but it doesn't taste nearly as good, burns faster if you try to cook eggs with it, and has a long list of oils on the ingredients list, where butter either has one ingredient (sweet cream) or two (sweet cream and salt). Plus butter has saturated fats that are healthy in small amounts, because saturated fat is an essential component of brain cells and aids in eliminating brain fog and promoting clear thinking.
 
I like to use vegetable oil because it tastes the EXACT same as butter, yet it's like 10x healthier for you that butter. I have been known to use butter, though.
 
I'm not really fond of either, in all honesty. We don't really have any in the house. P: The appeal of either on toast just doesn't appeal to me.
 
Margarine is simply a substitute for the real deal. It's like the No Name brand. It's fine, but probably not as good as the actual brand.
 
I'm not sure how this happens but whenever I eat margarine it causes me to have really bad headaches. I stopped eating margarine altogether after that became an reoccurring problem.
 
Butter, it's far creamier and I just prefer it, but it has to be completely melted, like if there's a cold chunk of unmelted butter I'll probably barf.
 
Butter butter butter!!
Oleo (Margarine) has molecules of paint and plastic in it and it is very disgusting, and has a very unnatural colour to it as well.
We've been using it a lot lately unfortunately due to the fact that we lost a court case and have become a lot more poor than we were. We used to buy only butter. The only things we use butter for now is baking, which we put our heart and pride into as a family of pastry makers, cake decorators, and chefs. When we have a few extra dollars on hand we buy a roll of Amish butter and use it sparingly because its so amazing.
