What is the recommended serving size for butter or margarine?

When reaching for the butter or margarine, keep in mind that you're reaching for fat - 100% fat. Although our daily diet requires fat, it's a minimal amount.

The recommended serving size for butter or margarine equals 1 pat of fat OR 1 teaspoon. And it's a great idea to use a standard teaspoon until you can smear with confidence. Be sure you level off the teaspoon.
