I guess it's a bit of both. I always try to make things as healthy as possible, and so I try to stay clear of shortening. I heard that you can replace shortening with margarine, but I've never tried.

If there is something that I can use as a substitution, I'd also have to find out if the amount for the substitution would be the same as the shortening.

As I said before, I have passed up many recipes because they call for shortening, but if I can find something else to use, I'd be happy. As a matter of fact, I have a brownie recipe that I'd love to try, but won't do so unless I can use an ingredient other than the shortening.

Do you want to use something that isn't fat or just not something like lard or Crisco?
