Aussies have rated Sunnyvale (Aldi) as the top pick in Canstar Blue’s latest margarine ratings, with five-star reviews for taste, texture and consistency, value for money, packaging and overall satisfaction.
Our review compares margarine brands on customer satisfaction, so you can find out what other Aussies think about the compared brands before you go ahead with a purchase. Think of it as like asking hundreds of your closest mates which margarine brand they think is best!
Canstar Blue surveyed 1,860 Australians for their feedback on the margarine or table spread brand(s) they’ve purchased and eaten in the last three months.
The winning brand is the one that receives the highest overall satisfaction rating once all the scores from the overall satisfaction criteria are combined and averaged.
Brands must have received at least 30 responses to be included, so not all brands available in the market have been compared in this survey. The brands rated in this survey are listed below in order of best overall satisfaction.
