Question:

Is it true that butter/margarine is considered a dairy product?


That's what some people say.


Answers: I don't know, but it does have dairy products in it. It's made when you boil milk, until the cream rises (which is basically the fat). And I think margarine is just hardened vegetable oil. So... i guess! yes it is Real butter is a dairy product being the result of churning cream from milk. Margarine is NOT, I repeat, NOT a true dairy product. It has plastic in it!!!!! Yes it is, butter at least, made from cream. Margarine is an oil, however. Butter is definitely a dairy product since it is made from milk.

Margarine is made with vegetable oil so it is not a dairy product. Butter is.

Margarine may or may not be. Although margarines are made from vegetable oil, some have dairy added to it, either as whey, buttermilk, or butter. This is more common in Europe than here. butter is cream

margrins is oil butter is made from the cream from milk

maragrin is made from whipping oil and adding other ingredients sure, that's it. in my small uneducated food sense, butter has a section all to it's own. which probably means i'm just weird. Butter--Yes
Margarine--No. It's a vegetable oil
