Hard margarine is a solid, plant-based fat product made from partially or fully hydrogenated vegetable oils, sold in block form and used primarily for baking, frying and spreading. Per 100 g, it delivers 666 kcal, 73.5 g of fat, and just 0.5 g each of protein and carbohydrate, with no fibre or sugars — making it almost entirely a fat source. It provides 819 mcg of vitamin A and 10 mcg of vitamin D per 100 g, both typically added through fortification, along with 30 mg of choline. Sodium content is notable at 600 mg per 100 g, worth keeping in mind when using it in quantity. No glycemic index is applicable given the negligible carbohydrate content. Hard margarine is compatible with vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, keto and low-FODMAP dietary patterns.
