2. Easy to spread
At refrigerated temperatures, margarine is easy to spread; making it a convenient choice in the kitchen and at the table. Meadow Lea now comes in convenient portion packs, perfect for serving alongside dinner rolls and toast, as well as breakfast items like pancakes and banana bread.
