[QUOTE="Scandichic, post: 486910, member: 94210"] I have never liked margarine or spreads despite my parents always buying flora when I was growing up. Whilst in my first year at uni, I came home for the Christmas hols and got a job for 3 days in a pork pie factory. Totally hideous job but the people were really nice. One evening, I noticed a bucket of grey sludge and asked what it was. I was told that it was margarine and that the yellow colour was only added to make it more appealing to the eye. Since it was being added to food, customers would only see the finished product and it was cheaper therefore to buy the grey sludge. Never ate spread from that point onwards. Managed to persuade my mother who also only buys butter...... Like aldis' luxury range one with salt crystals. Just wish I could have the crusty bread to go with it (sigh)! [/QUOTE]
