Plant-Based Butter Is Margarine With Better MarketingSo I wonder if it's legal to call plant-based margarine "plant butter" today.
Amid the rising interest in plant-based foods, the formula for margarine was slightly tweaked to remove all animal ingredients, and plant butter was born. Except, again, it’s not butter. It’s margarine.
This makes plant-based butter a mislabeled food, a big no-no in the industry. It’s not following the legal definitions set by the CFR and the various laws that help regulate our food supply.
If it’s illegal, why hasn’t the government stepped in?
The Food and Drug Administration should be the regulating body to intervene, but so far, there’s only been crickets. It’s likely that recent budget cuts and chronic underfunding mean the FDA doesn’t have the manpower to attack a problem that isn’t actively harming American citizens. Margarine being mislabeled as butter is, for good reason, low on the list of priorities.
Like, gluten free rice and potatoes?The term “plant based” is way overused these days.
The other day while shopping there was a display of plant based granola.
I had to laugh.
You just have to eat more. I don't get the concept of "high nutrition" when we have to pay a lot more, you can always eat more of the cheaper stuff you know.many plant foods boast high nutrition BUT in reality most are poorly absorbed!! real grass fed butter for me + for best pie crust use pig fat which can be purchased economically on line rather than the good but overpriced Fatworks stuff.
