I think you are right - you probably should be able to use it for the tasks where oiling is required - like oiling your door so it’d stop squeaking, or tools etc

You could use it to grease pans for cakes.

I used to use veggie oil to oil my hamster’s wheel. Since they’ll lick and chew on everything.

All I can think of now is “Last Tango In Paris”

Teehee.

And also, ick.

i don’t know……..
hehehe

I use margerine instead of spirits to clean paint brushes when using gloss paint. Sounds bonkers, and it only works well if the paint on them is fresh, but the oil dilutes spirit-based paint pretty well.

Rub it into the brush hairs, then use hot water and washing-up liquid to clean it off.

Not helpful right now, but in the future, many margarines do OK in the freezer.

you could save it up and add seeds and old breadcrumbs, old cake,fat from meat etc. and make feed for the birds in winter

Margarine was originally manufactured to fatten turkeys. When it killed the
turkeys, the people who had put all the money into the research wanted a
payback so they put their heads together to figure out what to do with this
product to get their money back. It was a white substance with no food appeal so
they added the yellow coloring and sold it to people to use in place of
butter. How do you like it? They have come out with some clever new flavorings.
Margarine is..

Very high in Trans fatty acids.

Triple risk of coronary heart disease.
Increases total cholesterol and LDL (this is the bad cholesterol) and
lowers HDL cholesterol, (the good cholesterol)

Increases the risk of cancers up to five fold.

Lowers quality of breast milk.

Decreases immune response.

Decreases insulin response.

And here’s the most disturbing fact…. HERE IS THE PART THAT IS VERY
INTERESTING!

Margarine is but ONE MOLECULE away from being PLASTIC..

This fact alone was enough to have me avoiding margarine for life and
anything else that is hydrogenated (this means hydrogen is added, changing the
molecular structure of the substance).

You can try this yourself:

Purchase a tub of margarine and leave it in your garage or shaded area.
Within a couple of days you will note a couple of things:

* no flies, not even those pesky fruit flies will go near it (that should
tell you something)

* it does not rot or smell differently because it has no nutritional value;
nothing will grow on it. Even those teeny weeny microorganisms will not a
find a home to grow. Why? Because it is nearly plastic. Would you melt your
Tupperware and spread that on your toast?

i’ve heard it has a whale bi-product in it somehow. so basically…margarine is the worst idea ever, seeing it all in writing has proved my point.

Who needs margarine anyway? I only ever use olive oil and, for baking, sunflower oil. I keep a few chunks of butter in the freezer for the odd buttery occasion (like freshly baked bread). For the rest, I never buy margarine. It has the nutritional value of plastic, but with more poisons in it. Stay away from margarine!!
