which earth balance do you use?

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
every time i go to the store to buy more earth balance i always look at the different types and try and figure out the "best" one. for awhile i was getting 2 types; the one made with olive oil and the "soy garden" version for baking. but since i use it mostly for baking i stopped getting the one made with olive oil and only buy the soy garden.

which do you get and why, what are the differences between the different types (other then the obvious that one type is made with olive oil). i have found 4 different types:

-soy garden
-olive oil
-regular? not sure if thats what it is called
-whipped, i assum that it is the regular type only whipped whihc seems like you would be getting less for the price because they are filling it with air.

I use the regular one. No real reason, I just like it so haven't experimented much with the others. I think it might be the cheapest option too? Not 100% sure on that. I know they just came out with a soy-free version, which is awesome for our soy-intolerant peeps!

I use the sticks for cooking/baking and the whipped for eating. It is slightly more expensive (the same price as the original, but fewer ounces), but I think it tastes more like butter. So we just put it on veggies, bread/toast, etc.

Organic whipped. I may pay more for air, but the whipped consistancy helps me use less.

I get the whipped because its the only one that's organic.

I buy the standard kind, because it comes in the giant container. I also use the sticks.
