Use soy butter instead of olive oil for baking vegetables

I'm putting olive oil (probably too much) in my oven tray when roasting vegetables, potatoes, poultry, etc.

Can I use soy butter instead of olive oil?

Alternatively, what are some cheaper types of oil that I can use for baking vegetables?

Put it on the vegetables not on the tray.

Anything not on the vegetables is wasted. You can put a little bit on them then roll them around with your hangs. Olive oil is good for roasting. Just skimp on it.

You can bake with any bland oil. I used to keep corn oil for baking. It is cheap and flavorless. Sunflower oil is pretty cheap too, and it has a little bit of flavor that I think goes well with baked goods. That is what I was using until I used it up this week.
