Within a few days you'll notice a couple of things, that should tell you something......... <p dir="auto">No flies, not even those pesky fruit flies will go near it! <p dir="auto">It does not rot or smell differently because it has no nutritional value. <p dir="auto">Nothing will grow on it, even those "teeny weeny" microorganisms will not find a home to grow! <p dir="auto"><span><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://www.diynatural.com/wp-content/uploads/Butter-margarine.jpg" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://www.diynatural.com/wp-content/uploads/Butter-margarine.jpg 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://www.diynatural.com/wp-content/uploads/Butter-margarine.jpg 2x" /> <pre><code> WHY?....... <p dir="auto">Because it's nearly plastic, would you melt a "Tupperware" container and proceed to spread it on your toast??? <pre><code> Full credit to.......JeffPassofaro.
