    The wife bought this by mistake. As someone who loves butter this was actually ok. I don't mind it on my toast.

    It's good stuff, and half the price of the cheapest cow based product these days.

    Same price in Morrisons if it helps anyone

    Same price in Tesco. It works well for frying bread as it doesn't taste much different to butter. I haven't used for baking though.

    Most people don't realise how lactose intolerance affects the majority of the World's population, and for some, products like this are a necessity, not a lifestyle choice.
    Experts estimate that about 68 percent of the world's population has lactose malabsorption. Source:-

    Not sure we can say the majority are intolerant from that source - “While lactose malabsorption causes lactose intolerance, not all people with lactose malabsorption have lactose intolerance.”

    In Europe, incidence of malabsorption is much lower and in the U.K. it’s estimated intolerance is around 10% because milk is such an important part of our diets compared to other regions. An example of relatively modern convergent evolution.

    This study suggests small amounts of lactose are well tolerated by adults raising the question of how necessary lactose-free products or even very strict lactose-free diets are for some people. Of course this is dependant on the individual and YMMV but I found it interesting

    Fine for baking. No one can tell the difference when I use these for flapjacks or biscuits as the other ingredients (peanut butter, jam, chocolate etc.) are the primary flavours.
    Works okay-fine for frosting cakes.

    Personally I don't see the point in using it on toast when you've got loads of different margarines to choose from and they will be less messy too. Essentially, this is margarine, albeit in a sturdy block form thanks to the added bean protein and (extra) processing (edited)

    Great stuff. You can spread it, though. Just cut a slice off and let it melt into your crumpet
