Over the last century, Americans have become increasingly confused about fats. Travel back to the Little House on the Prairie, and you’d find Americans happily adding lard, cream and butter to their food. In the 20th century, these saturated animal fats went out of vogue, and “healthier” products like margarine graced American tables instead. Today, no healthy eater would touch the trans-fats in margarine – although they might opt for a trans-fat-free margarine made with palm oil instead.
