I use butter instead of margarine because fo the health problems margarine has been shown to cause.

ChasidishHarry 12-22-2003 03:06 PM

Finally! Someone backing me up ;)

Many people say that margarine, a semi-solid vegetable oil spread, is healthier than butter. That couldn't be further from the truth. Margarine is made by altering polyunsaturated vegetable oil to make it solid. This process creates hydrogenated and partially-hydrogenated fats (fatty acids). Just four or more teaspoons a day of margarine actually increases your risk of heart disease.

Thanx, Steph,
Jerry

Instead of 1/4 cup Milk, 1/4 cup Margerine, use 1/2 cup margerine - preferably butter. It tastes much better this way

this has got to be the funniest thread I have read in a long time.

Yes, butter is better than margerine. And i would just use butter.

Whatever you do, dont use soy milk, I tried this once... not one of my brighter moments...ughh!

You dont have the West Virginia Country Boy option listed - Trip to the cow barn with a tin bucket!

ChasidishHarry 12-22-2003 08:27 PM

Heck, that's the best option. As long as you have enough grass you'll never run out of milk. You're a genius, burnpile ;)

Just make sure you live next to a barn :D

Regards,
Jerry

p.s. You ever milked a cow, burnpile?

Sorry burnpile, but I'm a city-slicker. You don't even wanna think about milking any of the animals I have access to. ;)

Though, I wonder what time the zoo is open 'till...

Did you ever see "Meet The Parents"?

If you did, you know exactly what I want to say... ;) ( I don't wan't to say it publicly :D)

i would use ¼ cup of egg whites because their both white.

grizzly 12-27-2003 02:52 PM

I had to use water one to many times, so I learned to always check before I make it.

Please, real food, people! What's with all these posts about Kraft Macaroni and Cheese and grape-work-alike Kool-Aid? I was hoping Linux users would have somewhat more, well, sophisticated tastes than your average Windows user. If you're going to go for the macaroni and cheese, at least use real cheese and not that powdered, processed-and-reprocessed yellow stuff that comes in the evil blue box of death.

I'd rather go for a nice turkey sandwich with Lorraine cheese on rye or whole wheat bread than eat processed crud.

Capt_Caveman 12-28-2003 03:29 PM

I figure if I eat enough processed foods loaded with chemicals and preservatives, by the time I die my relatives will be able to skip on the embalming process and save a few bucks. By the way, I'm a huge fan of better living through chemistry, so the more processed and genetically modified, the better. Mmmm, all this talk is making me hungry, I think I'm going to McDonalds for a growth-hormone-laden cyborg burger with petroleum-derived processed cheese.

slakmagik 12-28-2003 03:34 PM

Don't forget, now new and improved with mad cow disease! :D I don't think those cows are mad; they're just misunderstood.

Can't speak for anybody else, but it's not that I don't have sophisticated taste... well, I don't, but even if I did, it wouldn't be the issue. I spent all my Lorraine cheese money on my new hard drive and so it's macaroni and water time. ;)
