  1. What's a limit butter? Do you mean that fake butter like "I Can't Believe it's not butter?"

  2. I try to not consume any butter at all. In comparison to fake butter it is better for you because butter comes from milk,but it is animal fat thus is higher in saturated fat as well as containing cholesterol. A tablespoon of butter is pretty much like a tablespoon of any fat – it contains around 14 grams of fat and, of this, about 8 grams is saturated fat. I would use with caution. In moderation it is ok in my opinion, but should be limited.
