on 9/6/2009 Ok...so who actually tested this recipe out? :/ I mean really, what ever happened to people cooking, and then posting a review? I don't need someone telling me about vegan margarine, I actually have a good recipe for that! Plus, what vegan actually needs to be reminded, that things like margarine have dairy in them...?

on 8/8/2006 For vegans, like myself, who cannot eat soy, Spectrum makes a very good non-trans fat palm oil that has the consistency of soft margarine that can be used with very good results in this recipe.

on 11/22/2005 I was reading some of the vegan recipes (the ones for Thanksgiving), and I noticed that they had margarine listed as an ingredient. It is important to know that most popular margarines have dairy products in them. For vegans or nonvegans serving vegans, I suggest soy margarine. It can be found at some grocery stores and most health food stores. It just can't have milk, butter, whey, sodium caseinate, etc.
Thanks,
Kay
