I've been seeing this for quite a while when grocery shopping (Canada). In the dairy section there's products labelled butter, margarine and plant based butter. Plant based 'butter' is margarine but usually with fancier packaging and a higher price. Not for me.

 

Unlike margarine, plant-based butter does not include hydrogenated oils. At least that's my understanding. Please correct me if I'm mistaken. Also, plant-based butter is completely free of any animal products, while margarine may still contain trace amounts of dairy.
