I wouldn't even use margarine on my toast. Would definitely use butter instead of margarine if they were of the right age for dairy.

We use whatever we have in. Floral, Utterly Butterly, I can't Believe it's not butter. He only has a tiny amount anyway... it's not like I cake his toast in it

Depends what you mean by marg. Actual margarine contains trans fats and is horribly unhealthy even for adults, so it definitely shouldn't be used for children. If you mean a spread that contains butter, oil and no other added ingredients then it's fine.

Yes, any spread is fine, just as long as it has no trans fats (but then nobody should be eating trans fats, not specifically babies.)
