Why?
If you're worried about fat content, I can't say that trans-fats in butter substitutes are any better. Butter is good.
The only technical reason to be careful is perhaps the low burn/smoke point of butter. For higher temps, you want oil, and an oil with a higher smoke point (the temp at which it starts to smoke and burn).
But other than that, cooking with butter is great.
What you SHOULD do is make a point to use UNSALTED butter. Two reasons - the quality is better, because to be more stable when unsalted requires a better butter, and also because it doesn't contribute salt to the dish, leaving you free to control it by what you add yourself.

I've never heard that and am wondering where you read that information. I do know that if you are cooking with butter--such as sauteing or browning something on top of the stove--you have to maintain a moderate heat, as at a higher heat the milk solids in the butter will begin to burn and smoke. Hope that helps.

Not exactly true.. but kosher (kashrut) law sez you wont mix meat and dairy.. and in fact you will keep seperate cooking utinsils for the two..
its a biblical thing particularly if yer Hebrew.... If yer xtian never mind youze guys pick and ignore anyway.. so no biggy
(I'm neither BTW) But i will go on record as saying I'm amazed at ya'll that dont even know the basic diatary laws contained in yer own bible.. FUNNY.. I'm a pagan and i know em.. yer so called xtains and never even heard of em.. TOOO FUNNY...
(Start at Leviticus 11 for you so called Xtians.. Jews.. I dont need to tell you you already know where to start in the Torah.. you already know.. Muslims i dont need to tell you either you already know...)

well, butter is used in many ways of cooking. greasing a pan, flavor, ect. but the will probably find an alternative for butter sooner or later.

NOOOO! That is not true, look at the French (from France), they are mostly slim and beautiful, and they eat really well(just resposibally). And their butter is even higher in fat then ours! That's why their croissants are soo much better then ours!
