2, the distinction between animal butter and vegetable butter: look at the packaging, animal butter is all wrapped in paper, and it often sticks to your hands when you open the package, while vegetable butter is all packed in plastic boxes; (1897 German Emperor William II has stipulated these two different packaging methods to distinguish them. )
3, look at the melting point: the melting point of animal butter is about 34 degrees, very soft at 28 degrees, very hard at 0-4 degrees. But vegetable butter is very different. Generally, it remains softened even if it is refrigerated;
4. Taste: Animal butter is rich in milk, while vegetable butter is light in taste. Look at the English names on the package: animal Butter: butter, plant butter: Margarine.
5, look at the ingredients: animal butter is made of fresh cream (salted butter with a little salt, salt-free butter without salt), vegetable butter is made of oil (such as coconut oil), water, salt, preservatives, pigments and other additives.
6. Because vegetable butter has a fatal disadvantage, that is, vegetable oil will produce trans fatty acids after hydrogenation, people didn't know enough about trans fatty acids in the early days, so vegetable butter is widely used. However, with the deepening of research, the harm of trans fatty acids is increasingly recognized, especially for cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, it is better not to use vegetable butter. Plants are not necessarily healthy.
