“As for butter versus margarine, I trust cows more than chemists.” –Joan Gussow
This pretty much sums up the argument for eating more healthy fats, right? A lot of people replace butter from their diets with margarine. However, margarine isn’t the healthiest option.

In the 1900s, chemists discovered how to harden liquid oils and vegetable oil replacing animal fat.
