Buffalo-Style Sauce (Light Butter or Plant-Based Margarine)

Buffalo-Style Sauce (Light Butter or Plant-Based Margarine) is a spicy American-style condiment commonly used as a wing sauce or dipping sauce, made by blending hot pepper sauce with light butter or plant-based margarine for a tangy, buttery heat. Nutrition-wise it is calorie-dense and intended to be used sparingly; it contains notable salt at 5g per 100g and provides most of its calories from fat, though much of the fat profile leans toward monounsaturated and contains some omega-3s. As a prepared sauce, it offers little fiber and only a small amount of protein, but its fat composition can be relatively favorable compared with sauces high in saturated animal fats—still, watch portion size because of the high sodium content.
