Butter. Margarine's made with hydrogenated oils.
"...In other words, butter consists mostly of saturated fat and is a significant source of dietary cholesterol. For these reasons, butter has been generally considered to be a contributor to health problems, especially heart disease. For many years, vegetable margarine was recommended as a substitute, since it is an unsaturated fat and contains little or no cholesterol. In recent decades, though, it has become accepted that the trans fats contained in partially hydrogenated oils used in typical margarines significantly raise "bad" LDL cholesterol levels as well.[22] Trans-fat free margarines have since been developed."

I would like to say butter but its actually margarine.......its a processed vegetable fat made to resemble butter....butter contains animal fat which is high in both saturated fats and cholesterol that raise our blood cholesterol...not good... Margarine's that are more healthy for us is non-hydrogenated margarine. This type of margarine contains no trans fat which is good...with that said..which ever one you choose both should be consumed in moderation....Here are some to choose from...
Becel
Benecol
Blue Bonnet Soft Spread
Canola Harvest Non-Hydrogenated
I Can't Believe it's not Butter
Promise
Smart Balance Light
