Here's a little something I picked up on my quest for food prep. Butterbuds makes a good butter substitute, that has a shelf life of 4 years. You add water to this product and drizzle it on your food. You can get a free sample by visiting their web site, no I do not own stock in the company. Go to: http://www.butterbuds.com

Sarah,

For baking foods, butter flavored crisco is a good alternative. It would not work as a spread for bread, pancakes, potatoes,etc.
