OMG! I'm so sorry I ate margarine as a kid. Killing a cetacean in my mind is murder. Damn. "By 1930, it was possible to produce a solid margarine from liquid whale oil. The spread melted at 30°C and would therefore melt in the mouth. By 1960, whale oil made up 17 percent of the total fats used in margarine production." --Chris van Tulleken, Ultra-Processed People: Why Do We All Eat Stuff That Isn't Food...and Why We Can't Stop (2023)," pg26.
