Recently I have been seeing "vegan butter" in the store. How this is not margarine eludes me. But my vegan friend assures me it's completely different.
I can't explain it either, but it really is different. I can only assume they improved the hydrolysis process or added plant-based fats that are solid at room temperature (palm oil or coconut oil).
It seems here in sweden none of it gets to call itself anything other than margarine, but the stuff i buy (which behaves the same as butter-based stuff) seems to have about 20% coconut/shea fat.
Then I might be lying. Was all convinced I saw it at ICA, but can't find anything online now 🤔
Unless they imported something under the radar maybe it was the "plant b+tter" I was thinking about.
My colleague was quite adamant that it was vegan butter he had used for the cookies he brought.
Could it be that the store had a sign "vegan butter" but the product itself was not labeled that way?

I'm kidding, but I've never seen an ICA outside of the southeastern states
