The Benecol has less sat fat than the Smart Balance. I use both cuz the Benecol reminds me more of butter in flavor. Benecol has 8 grams of fat with 1 sat fat and Smart Balance has 9 grams of fat with 2.5 sat fat per TBSP. Both are allowed though probably because what are we gonna eat it on cuz we don't overinduldge in pasta, bread, or anything else that we would put butter spread on.
