Default trans fast issue

Thank you one and all for this wonderful news!! I am not a pro by any means and have allot to learn. I am an avid home baker that has been told by several people outside the home that I should do something with what I do. This news clears up allot. I do love butter so much. My mother used to eat a tiny chip of it now and then, just as it is. She raised me on baking with butter and nothing else. My mother gave out a recipe for peanut butter cookies to someone and she gave us some. We thanked her and tried them. Even as a child I came to appreciate the difference between butter and margirine. The cookies given to us did not taste at all like my mother's. That stuck with me forever. I even use butter only when making pie crusts just like my mother did.

Oh---one quick question for the butter pros. Is there a goat's dairy butter on the market? If so, how is it for baking? I can imagine it to be quite costly in the states but for special occasions I would be willing to try it.

Thanks again!
