Just keep smelling it before you use it.

It'll probably go bad after a day. You could get food poisoning. Why not keep the main container in the fridge, and just cut off a piece on a plate and let it warm up before u use it. You could microwave it for 5 seconds too.

Yes, all margarines are bad for you anyways! Margarine has been processed and hydrogenated oils are very hard for your body to digest...almost impossible! This is why our arteries get clogged and we develop congestive heart failure! Your mom should start using real butter! It's more fattening but wouldn't you rather gain weight than have a heart attack?!

no necesarily. it's not so bad if if you live in a country that has cooler weather, for example Canada during the winter. But if you were to do that in Burkina Faso, well, by the time you'd wake up, the margarine would be liquid or very close to it.

Probably no worse than eating it from the fridge. It will eventually seperate.... since margerine is just one molecule off of being plastic. Usually margerine stays soft even in the fridge.... butter hardens... are you sure it is not butter?

It isn't bad to leave it out during the day, overnight I would put it away. If you do leave it out get a butter tray with a cover to make sure bugs and other things don't get on it.

It depends on how fast you go through it. My family always left one stick out for spreading on toast. It was gone within a week. Nothing ever happened to us.

keep it in the fridge bc it needs to be in a cool place. otherwise it will melt and bacteria will grow quicker! i dont think you want that,.

It'll be fine if used within a couple days.

If it's left out for a day, I'd say it's fine. More than that, I wouldn't risk it.
