I don't use margarine...it's hydrogenated. I use butter...sometimes mixed with olive oil. When I fry something, I mix olive oil (Omega 3) with the vegetable oil (Omega 6). Other good Omega 3 oils are grapeseed, flaxseed, and coconut. I will use these to saute, because Omega 3's are beneficial oils. If you want to reduce butter in a recipe, use applesauce. Try honey instead of sugar in baked goods. I don't drink cokes...maybe 1 every few months. And I avoid anything containing high fructose corn syrup. I hope this is helpful.
