Just wondering just what exactly “safe” butter/margarine is. I went to the organic grocery store, and everything seems to have soy in it. Some have soy proteins, some have soy oil, some have both. Is the soy oil ok? I found “Earth Balance Natural Shortening”, listed as 100% Vegan, non-hydrogenated. The ingredients list says Non-GMO Ingredients: Expeller Pressed Natural Oil Blend (Palm fruit, soybean, canola, and olive oils).

The store also had Cherrybrook Kitchen cake and frosting mixes, so I bought them both to try out before Dagney’s bday.

I just saw a post down further that says Fleishman’s Light Margarine is ok…is that the regular stuff at the grocery store? I think I checked it and there was soy something in it, so I guess that’s ok?

I’m pretty sure the oil is ok and soy lecithen sp? is ok too

you might want to check the main mspi page for links

(sorry if you’ve done this!)

Fleishman’s Light Margarine (in the blue tub) doesn’t contain any soy or milk. I just went downstairs to check the new container in our fridge. One of the lists on here says that Fleishman’s Unsalted sticks are safe, but they’ve changed the formula and it’s still milk free, but it now has soy in it. I haven’t used the Cherrybrook cake mixes (because they contain wheat), but the frosting is great. It’s a little runny (if you can find safe shortening, I’d try that) but Kaelyn loves it.

I just found the fleishman’s light in the yellow tub w/ lt blue top, and it doesn’t have any soy listed in the ingredients, but at the bottom says “contains soy”. Is this still ok?

Oh, and this may be a stupid question, but what is the “main mspi page”…i’m a little slow!!

That’s really weird… our fleishman’s light in the yellow tub with light blue top doesn’t say that. I’ll have to check when I pick up some more.

I know…it doesn’t have anything in the ingredients themself that mentions soy, but then below it I can swear it said “contains soy”. If I’m wrong, please let me know, I looked at it but didn’t buy it, so I can’t atest to it now.
