Don't want to be a hater but doesn't this basically create fat without nutrients? It feels like this is reinventing margarine albeit in a cool way.
They’re the same fatty acids found in butter. Margarine is hydrogenated oil.
They're from the same class yes, but is it also going to contain vitamins A, D, E and K2 or contain fatty acids like Conjugated Linoleic Acid or Butyric acid?
I'm trying to point out that factory produced fats will most likely lose out on the health benefits of butter as a source of fatty acids.
well fat is inherently a nutrient so, no.
