Hi Nancy, That's wonderful you are wanting to be healthy and are concerned about everyone else's health. I think it is pretty safe to say that most of us, if not all, know that butter can replace margarine and such. You can make the same arguement for some fruits and vegetables some of us can't have a lot of for health reasons. Not only that, but for stevia versus sugar, wheat flour versus white, and so on and so forth. We post recipes here to share, enjoy, and to promote the independence of the blind being good and confident cooks. I think I am safe in saying that when one posts a recipe, the contents in said recipe are to be used in descression to each individual's health and well being. I am sorry if I offended anyone by posting this response. Thanks again Nancy for your concern, and it is taken in friendship by me and others as well. Jael
