Butter Spreads and Substitutes
Find it: Most butter substitutes are made with cheap vegetables oils, artificial flavorings and colorings, preservatives, and lots of salt. But even worse is how many still have trans fat, even those that say "0g trans fat".

Fix it: Go for real butter from grass-fed cows and not only will you ditch all the weird ingredients, but you'll get a healthy dose of omega-3 fats, CLA, B12, and other goodies.
