Tastes great

4 stars

Review from Benecol UK

We weren't sure about this at first, shouldn't it be for someone older? But then I realised it is suitable & probably a good idea because of its health benefits. Tastewise id say it is on a par with some of the other brands, a really tasty spread

Great taste!

Review from BENECOL

This is a great substitute for butter or margarine. It tastes really creamy. You can spread it on your bread or toast and use it in your cooking where you would normally use butter. Best of all it can help lower your cholesterol.

Palm Oil

3 stars

I try to avoid any products with Palm Oil and this butter contains it !!

A HEALTHY SANDWICH!

5 stars

A lovely buttery taste! and just knowing it is very low in salt and saturates makes it a brilliant spread. Its plant based so great for vegetarians. It great for cooking too, nice and light for Crumbles and melting on your vegetables. I am very heavy handed with butter on Jacket Potatoes and Crumpets so Benecol serves me well on both of these. Worth the money.

Not for me.

1 stars

I had great hopes for this spread and expected it to taste at least vaguely buttery. However, I found the taste really unpleasant. I tried to force it down as I need to lower my cholesterol, but I couldn't do it and it went in the bin.

Very good quality and a pleasant buttery taste. Excellent for baking, especially Victoria sponge - lovely and light. Good on toast too.

Review from Benecol UK

Yummy. Spread that's got the top stop, that tastes like butter. With added benefits of reducing cholesterol levels is a win win situation. I needed to start paying attention to my health, with Benecol it been a easy, healthy and taste transition. Enjoying the fruits of life with taking care of oneself.
