    This is probably sarcastic, but in case it’s not: Applesauce is a vegan substitute for eggs, not oil. There is no substitute for oil as many oils are already vegan. You can definitely substitute animal-based fats like butter and lard for others like coconut oil to make a recipe vegan.

      It was sarcastic/joking, but wow I had no idea! They seem so dissimilar, I never would’ve thought that would work. Didn’t think I’d learn this much about baking today lol, thanks!

        I meant the other way. Substitute out lard and substitute in coconut oil.

          “Substitute X for Y” means “replace Y with X,” i.e., “for Y, use X instead.”

          “Substitute X with Y” would mean “replace X with Y.”

            Now, you’re going to just brag around with that knowledge of yours, and teach everyone how to write things so that things are correctly understood by the reader?

            That’s a helpful goal, go on, please

            I’ve heard it both ways.

      The OP graphic says “I followed the recipie exactly”, which they did not, so somehow I doubt that “facts” matter to them, who are making hyperbolic claims for emotional appeals rather than descriptive purposes.
