Yes.

I use Natural Balance organic vegan whipped buttery spread. It tastes really good, and spreads better than its non-whipped counterpart.

Yep, just check ingredients! =]

Yes, it's vegans who can not eat butter as they do not ea anything that has come from an animal

Most can. The ones who don't eat any animal products vegans
how ever can not. The can not have dairy or eggs or even honey because bees were supposdly killed in the process of harvesting. Butter is from creame so most can have it. Just as long as its not lard. Go with margarine (from vegie oil) if you are not sure if they are vegan or not.

Vegetarians can have all butters.

Vegetarians can eat eggs and/or dairy, if they so choose.

Vegans eat NO animal products whatsoever.

yes, vegetarians can have butter...it's not a meat product.

Not just any kind if they have a strict diet like a vegan one or they don't have any dairy products then really they can't or shouldn't. So it depends but yes for some.

yes, how ever vegans cant.

yes. some vegetarians choose to eat products that may be produced by animals, but do not directly harm the animal. to take this a step further, some vegetarians will make sure to buy organic products such as butter and other dairy products and also ensure that they were retrieved under healthy and harmless measures.
vegans, however choose to not indulge in dairy or other such products that come from any animal - even honey or silk.

I cant cause i am a vegan

yes
i am and i could eat butter

vegetarians can, but vegans can't. butter comes from animals, so i dont use butter (i'm a vegan). instead i use smart balance dairy-free margarine
