A while ago I did an expirement. I read an e-mail saying that margarine can't grow bacteria. I thought I would put it to the test. I took a stick of margarine and put it on two different foil pans. I spit on them both to put bacteria on it. I put bacteria growth on one of them and let the other one be. I put them in an incubator to grow the bacteria. After one week, I looked at both samples under a microscope. I found absolutley no signs that the bacteria had grown on either sample. My conclusion is that margarine cannot grow bacteria! I did some research and it turns out it was used to fatten turkeys before thanksgiving. If you want to test this at home, take a stick of butter and margarine, put them both in your garage and watch them. Flies will go up to the butter but will avoid the margarine. I found this expirement very interesting so I figured I would share it
