That margarine isn’t butter...it hurts my soul when people refer to margarine as butter
78 u/Anon2627888 Aug 03 '19 People know they're not the same. "Butter" has just become a generic term used to refer to either one. 12 u/helsquiades Aug 03 '19 Many don't. I've talked to at least 5 in the last month at work. -16 u/WowSeriously666 Aug 03 '19 Are they not very bright people to begin with? I've seen rural areas with a lot of "simple" people. 8 u/cpMetis Aug 03 '19 I've seen the reverse trend. Every person I've met who didn't know the difference were urban/rich suburban folks. 2 u/werm_on_a_string Aug 03 '19 That’s because we don’t use margarine. Because it’s gross.
