I ate butter when I got my DD. I don't eat margarine (and have gotten boys when eating it so no magic bullet!) I"ts just one little thing that may help a bit.

My husband worked at a canola plant for a while and it actually means CANada Oil Low Acid CAN+O+L+A I know weird. But they didn't want to call it "rapeseed" LOL

I have a question - and forgive me if its already outlined but my go-to for butter substitute (bc butter was my liffffe before lol) is I can't believe it's not butter light. It says water, vegetable oils, modified Palm and Palm kernel oils.... Is this a blue or pink swaying fat? It's got like 2g of fat in a tap

Most likely very pink, but can you give me the exact fats breakdown (grams of saturated, polyunsaturated etc fats per serving)?

I'd call that pretty good. It's not as pink as possible but not super blue and definitely much pinker than butter. If you cook mostly/entirely with a very pink oil like canola and use the butter sub moderately you would have a great balance of fats IMO for a pink sway. But if all your fat came from that stuff, you'd still have an decent balance.
